A:Answer I have the same situation. 1 purchased a one off Office Home & Student 2019 for my Desk top. The desk top is totally dead. I have purchased a new laptop. Despite the details of the purchase being in my Office account, and downloading Office Home & Student 2019 to my Laptop, from my Office account, it is asking me to purchase it again. I am less happy with Microsoft's support with what would seem to me, to be a common occurrence. At this point, it would seem microsoft doesn't allow this. I am now investigating Australian consumer law, as this would be illegal.
