hey Analog Dude - definitely get your concern with privacy. Microsoft believes privacy is a human right and is adhering to the Dutch Government privacy regulations in addition to GDPR. In terms of updates, there's lots of new value constantly coming to Office. For instance, you now have the ability to collaborate in real-time, documents are auto-saved, PowerPoint has a new presentation coach that gives you feedback on your presentation delivery, Word has a resume assistant that helps you write a better resume, PowerPoint helps you design better slides with slide suggestions, etc. Lots of innovation to help make you more productive. Give the apps a shot to see if it changes your opinion. I think you'll find that the apps offer pretty good value. Happy to chat more with you. Cheers!

I use kingsoft/WPS, its free and it uses file types that are compatible, meaning, when you send a file to someone else, they will have no problem opening the file/viewing the file. Is this free to people, because you have an online Microsoft account/the way Microsoft gets paid/compensated, is by tracking you/ creating an in depth profile, of what you buy online, where you go online/how you use your computer, what you type, and so on, in which they can sell that information, or create products that are marketed/created around the data they've collected from you/people? I have a local account/I dont have an online microsoft account. I turned basically everything off, in the privacy settings, on my version of windows 10, I also have a firewall that runs along side windows firewall, that's specifically designed to prevent windows from doing questionable things, using bandwith, sending certain information back to certain servers, I also immunize my systems, with spybot, I also use a VPN, I also use things like HTTPS everywhere, that makes sure that every website visited has HTTPS to, I also use things like privacy badger/ghostery, SSL/SSHC, I've also disable allot of services as well, I also ripped out/deleted the diagtrack service along with dmwappushservice, just to list/go over a couple things I've done, security wise, it is getting bad, now that you have to protect, even more, against, your own OS/Operating System. I dual boot windows 10 and Manjaro linux, but windows is still needed for allot of things/its still the most used OS, I like windows 10 as a whole, and after you put security measures in place, but out of the box/a fresh download of windows 10, is not great. Good video though, for those that don't care about all of this, no offense/this is not meant to be a hateful comment, also I don't use adblockers on youtube, unless someone decides to put 10/30ads in a video. You explained everything perfectly/the video is good.
Are you kidding me?! This gives you a pretty full featured experience for free and it's LEGAL! This has everything the average person would need. Even better, impoverished people just need a connection to the internet and they have capabilities they've never had before. But, sorry this impressive online service isn't good enough for you. Now people don't just expect stuff for free, they whine if they don't get everything. I have the full version of Office already and these capabilities are invaluable to me. Challenge: create the most ground breaking productivity software on the planet and then give it away for free. I hope you're a kid. That would be a good excuse. Full disclosure, I don't work for MS. I'm just a tech guy that finds this very useful.
you know, there is something to be said about the old days when this software was included in the purchase of your device and there was no additional cost.
@@Believer7154 They aren't "taking advantage of us". They are selling product, which they made. Why they should offer you something for free if they work hard to do it? Would you expect that baker would give you bread or cookies for free all the time, not only as gift on the opening week?
I 've used some of the Microsoft products since the first DOS product and experimented with the first published version of Windows. While I can't say that Microsoft has always provided the best value for me, its progress has been great, and this access to the app is very convenient....much more convenient and useful than a Chinese clone that I used for a while, and trades a couple of nuisances found in Libre Office for different ones in Office 365.
Thank you so much for the video, Kevin! But I will prefer to buy a license for a lifetime this time for my office applications. Is there any trustworthy website to get Office 2021 for cheap?
U saved my life man. The online method works for me and it's sad that many people misunderstood the purpose of this video... This video is supposed for people that have ended their subscription of their Microsoft office. By doing what this kind person showed us in this video, we can still use the Microsoft apps online even though our subscription has ended. And when the subscription ends, we are not supposed to be able to make any editing or amendments to the files that we have on our computer through offline. Hope this clears the misunderstanding by most viewers. Thank you so much for sharing this video Mr. Kevin ♥
Kevin, in case no one has ever told you, you are a great guy! I've been following you for a while and I'm not sure what you actually do at Microsoft but they are very lucky to have you.
If you want "How to Use the desktop fully-featured version of Microsoft Office in 2019" you'll need to go to Office.com and click on Get Office. You can then buy a subscription or purchase a one-time license. For using Office for free, this is the only legal option available. Hope that helps.
@@hsw268 This is getting pedantic. Get = succeed in attaining, achieving, or experiencing; obtain. This video qualifies under that definition in that you can experience Office. The main intent of this video is to show you how you can get / use Office for free. If you're looking for the desktop apps for free, if you're a student, you may qualify depending on whether your school has a contract with Microsoft. However, any other option is likely illegal / theft. Btw, even with the desktop software, the software is licensed, not sold. According to the terms "This agreement only gives you some rights to use the features included in the software edition you licensed." Hope that helps clarify.
@@KevinStratvert You know exactly what you were doing when you used "get" in your title. This is clickbait. The proper diction would be "use", and not "get". Getting means owning, which isn't the case in this particular instant.
Thank u Kevin. I was having a hard time trying to get Microsoft office. U explained it so well, I followed what u said n got access to it hassle free. Thanks a lot for ur help. Appreciate it.
The problem with all of these types of video's is the misusage of the word "FREE". The download is free, the trial is free, but the software is not FREE.
God Bless you, Kevin! Thank you for uploading this and showing us this tutorial! My OLD laptop recently did an update and screwed up whatever version of Office Starter I was using before and I could not get it back. I have been tracking my weight-loss as well as my money saving things on an Excel Sheet (I know there are specific apps and things for that, it's just nice to see it and update it daily on an Excel Sheet...and it has been working). I thought I had lost all my progress I have made so far this year and it was actually kind of upsetting me. Thanks to this walkthrough, I was able to upload all my old files to office and pick up right where I left off! Thanks again, fella, you are my Hero!!!
Awesome. Kevin. Thanks so much. I am a senior citizen who has recently acquired a laptop and I am learning so much from your videos. Thank you! My lockdown project is to learn how to use my laptop . Stay safe.
Excellent tutorial - and a lifesaver! We’ve had to replace our desktop PC and have long since lost the code for the Office on our old computer. Now I know I can use the web version and won’t have to buy a new copy. Much obliged for this instruction.
Nonsense. This is stealth ad clickbait for MS: Kevin isn't giving anything away, you don't 'get' Office for free, you're getting to _use_ a more functional Office web app and a teaser for a fully paid or paying subscription for 365.
The title of this is wrong. You won't "get" Office for frree, you can work with some office apps online without having office on your computer. Not good
@@paulwagner5696 here's something I've done and it's helped me. log into your Google drive and you should see an option that let's you created documents (it has the Microsoft office interface) then you just save the docs right in your drive and you can access them on multiple devices
Bought my first Chromebook and was reluctant because I’m so use to using MS Office. Thank you for making this so simple and straight to the point. Two thumbs up!
Everyone can hate all they want... him showing me how to upload the file to my onedrive allowed me to open my assignment.. that I was repeatedly being prompted to open and purchase office.... Thanks much dude!!! Huge help!!!!
could of just got softmaker office free that is made by a ms gold certified software partner and its free and its 100 percent compatible with ms office and is available on linux and you can install it on 5 pcs for nothing but sure money saver
Kevin: This is the second of your videos that I am watching. The first was that OneDrive video from two years ago. I am now subscribed and looking to watch all on your channel (someday, LOL). You have amazing presentation skills! AND... we can understand you!
Nice tutorial - however, all files must be stored on the cloud; downloading a file to your PC is fine for viewing but you can't edit the file - to edit the file, you must upload it to the cloud; I call this the cloud's ping-pong game - have fun!
Great information! I paid for and used Word for years on my Apple machine - until the last big Apple update and lost everything. This helps so much. Thank you. Worth subscribing.
I, too, have a paid license to Office, but it is on a slowly dying computer, a Lenovo that has a weak hinge design and frequently loses its fingerprint reader function for signing in. This utility allows me to procrastinate about the nuisance of formally transferring my license to my HP desktop.
Pretty click-batey. You don't "Get Microsoft Office for Free" at all. This is just their limited web-based versions , not the full-featured desktop programs which require a subscription.
Thank you so much, Kevin. I've been reluctantly subscribing to Office 360 for about a year now and I don't use it a lot but when I do I NEED it. Now I can save all that money and still use Microsoft Office when necessary.
I still end up subscribing to Office 365, partly for the apps but primarily for the 6TB OneDrive space that I can share with my family. It's actually a pretty affordable way to get lots of cloud storage to backup photos/videos. More value is constantly coming to the subscription, so it might make sense to hold on to see if there's enough value to justify the expense.
@@KevinStratvert Agree. Just can't afford it right now. But by May I can. The 6TB alone is worth the price. Plus, when I want to access it when there's no connection, I can continue on a project. Moreover, the constant add value is a good thing. So, thanks, Kevin. Appreciate your effort.
@@marcoantoniomirandar don't ever use a free vpn, its slow and not secure enough..plus they use ur data, well all these use ur data, vivaldi is better, but only on pc, so i'm stuck with opera, cause i sync everything so i don't have to remember what i did on another machine, also opera mobile has the best browsing experience on tablets, cause it has the best desktop mode and no matter the mode u can browse youtube in darkmode, other browsers can't do that, also it has the flow feature that is useful, if they only added extentions and flow to the regular android browser it would be perfect
wow..i was debating buying again..or just finding a key online..you have a very natural and confident approach , it was easy understanding and applying everything you were saying-thanks!
Yeah, it is the online version rather than getting your own "copy", but I wouldn't have known about this otherwise and this could be very useful for me. Thank you!
I'm sure it's because he has multiple training logins. Otherwise it will automatically login to his primary account. It's just for the video. And, by the way, incognito mode doesn't mean there's something nefarious going on. I just doesn't pull in saved data. Haven't you ever used that when logging in to a public computer?? You should.
@@KoryHunter2388 Oh No!! You don't think the author may have changed the title within the last 5 months. I am shocked at the possibility. Look at the other comments below, it's apparent the author has changed the title multiple times over the past 15 months.
@@KoryHunter2388 Usually when someone uses quotes in a comment, they are usually quoting something. Also, look at other comments that suggest a similar situation.
I just talked to my son and he informed me that I don't have to pay for Microsoft 365; which I did not know. So I went to RU-vid and saw your Video. Thank you very much for the information. I'm 81 and on a fixed income; this really helps my budget. I currently have MICROSOFT 365 active on my computer. Do I need to uninstall and cancel my subscription prior to installing the office app.
Krykies!! You are a lifesaver! lol All I wanted to do was type up a few pages of notes and that’s it. I don’t need excell or power point or anything else and since I remember the days when office came pre installed on every pc and laptop I get really frustrated and angry when I’m now told I need to 1: pay for office 365 and 2: I’ll have to pay again in a year. I guess that’s why it’s called Microsoft 365. I much prefer the old days when A: it was already on your computer or B: you purchased a cd-rom with office on it and a Key to activate it. But you only paid once and as long as you didn’t lose the cd-rom and the key you could use office for as long as your computer kept working but if it died and you bought a new laptop you could just pop the cd in and type in the key and install it on your new laptop or pc and keep going as long as Microsoft continued to support your version of windows. It sounds complicated but it wasn’t really. Pop in cd-rom with office on it follow the prompts, enter the key and Bam! You were up and running. WOOHOO!!!
Great job Kevin. What you provided is legal, moral and ethical. So appreciated. Although MS Office is not on my computer, I do have access as long as I have an internet connection. Jahi
Thank you very much for this video! You saved me from happy to buy the software. I only need this once every year, to download a word document for work. Life saver!
THIS. I have finished a Powerpoint I am trying to export as a video on my work laptop, and I've been having issues. I was told to try another device. I decided to try my desktop as it is much better. To note, I do not have Powerpoint installed on my desktop, only the laptop. I used this method to access the Powerpoint, but it is useless. This "free" version isn't the same, because all my animations, transitions and timings have been completely altered. :(
what a waste of time. the only question that is legitimate is how do you purchase AND receive a STAND ALONE version of OFFICE. Period. Stand Alone means its on your computer NOT the cloud. THE ENTIRE SOFTWARE APPLICATION is ON YOUR COMPUTER and its a one time fee.
thank you for sharing this, didn't know these existed and love how we can just work online so it doesn't have to be stick to one computer or use thumb drives to carry around documents!
Hi I am seeing this video but I get this error Error to create new document Please try again later. If this problem persists, you can try to create a new document from OneDrive. This is on my mac and I am using Google chrome
So aside from needing an internet connection, why do I pay $100 a year to MS for an office subscription? Is the functionality the same between the free and pay version?
Man, thanks so much for telling me about this. I super appreciate it. Even though its online only, I'm totally fine with that. Thank you :D Also, haha I totally see out the Bellevue window! I used to work at Disney Interactive in the building connected too yours.
dude. Certain words are subject to a different interpretation. "Get" is to succeed in attaining, achieving, or experiencing which he does actually do. Stop taking it so literally. Everyone knows that without payment of some sort you weren't actually going to "get" the offline version of the apps. Microsft would go broke if you could get the products for free offline.
Hi Sir Kevin. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. This is my first day watching your channel. I really like it because I can learn lots in your channel.
