You may be affected, depending on whether you used the license issued by RRU and even depending on how you used it. There IS a change for you if: | There is no change for you if: | You previously downloaded and installed Office on your computer at home using the A1 Plus license issued by RRU. | You use your own personal or company MS license on your non-RRU computer. You use Office 365 through RRU’s license exclusively online. |
If you previously installed Office on your computer using the RRU license, the installed version of Office will no longer function either on December 9 or after a 30 day grace period, so January 9. At that point, you’ll need to log into http://office.com/ using your RRU Login and password. Documents already saved on your desktop are accessible from http://office.com/ (popup blockers may prevent this so you may need to adjust the blockers). New documents will be created from http://office.com/ .
