Microsoft’s instructions are very clear and easy to follow, so you won’t get lost with downloading the files.
Device Storage Space
Installation is streamlined and easy, using the App-V technology to make sure installation is unintrusive. The App-V technology minimises how much data the Office 365 suite takes up of the device’s storage space, so it’s unlikely that storage will be an issue with installation.
Once You Have Installed
Once the Office 365 installation is complete, the next step is to register and activate your Microsoft account. Simply launch any of the Office 365 apps, such as Excel, and enter your Office 365 email address and password.
