Get Office Home And Business X64: Easy Steps

Microsoft Office Home and Business is a one-time purchase for 1 PC or Mac that includes classic 2021 versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook. It is compatible with Windows 11, Windows 10, or macOS. The 32-bit version of Office is installed by default, even if your computer is running a 64-bit version of Windows. This is because many vendors, including Microsoft, have not created 64-bit versions of their add-ons, and the 32-bit version is more compatible with these add-ons. However, if you are working with very large files or data sets that require more than 2 GB of memory, you may want to install the 64-bit version.

How to get Office Home and Business x64 for Windows 11 or Windows 10

To get Office Home and Business x64 for Windows 11 or Windows 10, you can purchase and download it from the Microsoft Store. Here is a step-by-step guide:
