How to Update Your Microsoft Office 2013 Serial Key

If you have purchased a Microsoft Office 2013 product, you may need to update your serial key to activate or renew your subscription. A serial key is a 25-character code that verifies your purchase and allows you to access the features of Office 2013. Depending on how you bought Office 2013, you may have received a product key in an email, on a card, or on the packaging of your product.

In this article, we will show you how to update your Microsoft Office 2013 serial key using different methods. Before you begin, make sure you have your product key ready. You can find it by following the instructions on this page.

Method 1: Update your serial key online

This method is suitable for most versions of Office 2013 that do not include a product key and only require you to sign in with your Microsoft account. Here are the steps to follow:

Go to www.office.com/setup or Microsoft365.com/setup.

Sign in with your Microsoft account, or create one if you don't have one. Be sure to remember this account so that you can install or reinstall Office later, without a product key.

Enter your product key, without hyphens, if prompted. If you don't see the option to enter your product key, it was entered for you automatically.

Follow the prompts to finish the redemption process.

Method 2: Update your serial key using Command Prompt

This method is suitable for Office Professional Plus, Visio Professional, or Project Professional. Here are the steps to follow:

Start an Office app, like Word, Project, or Visio, depending on your purchase.

In the Sign in to set up Office window, select I don't want to sign in or create an account (it's a small link at the bottom of the window).

Enter your Office product key, without hyphens.

Select Next and follow the prompts to complete the activation process.

Method 3: Update your serial key from Microsoft Store

This method is suitable for Office products that you bought from Microsoft Store. Here are the steps to follow:

Go to www.microsoftstore.com and sign in with the Microsoft account that you used to buy Office.

Select your name in the upper right-hand corner, and then select Order History.

Locate the Office one-time purchase or individual Office app, and then select Install Office to view your product key (this doesn't actually install Office).

Select Install Office again in the window where the product key appears.

Follow the instructions on the screen to download and install Office.
