Question 1

Is this a disk with product key or download with product key?

Accepted Answer

No disk inside. You get a product key and instruction. The instruction is 4 step: 1 go to website/setup, 2 enter 25 char Product Key and follow instruction, 3 sign in with or create your own Microsoft Account, 4 download the software to your PC.

Back of box said "Product cannot be replaced if tampered or activated, and cannot be redeemed for cash." Since you need to activate to use for long, I only assume you can't reinstall this software if you decide to delete/reformat or use on another , maybe more updated, machine.

Question 2

is this a disk?

Accepted Answer

People. Keep in mind that no regular retail version of Microsoft Office 2013 will have a disk option! Only ones that will have standalone installation media without all the download nonsense is office 2013 professional and all volume license versions!!!

Question 3

What languages are supported? I need Danish.

Accepted Answer

English is the default editing language, but Danish is available within the software for this.  For additional display languages, including Danish (I checked), I believe that you have to download the appropriate language pack from Microsoft.  It does not appear that there is any additional charge for this.  According to Microsoft, downloading Office Language Pack 2013 involves, "switching the entire experience, including menus and Help content, or only using proofing tools, such as spell checkers and dictionaries in many of the different languages".  So it looks as if you can replace some or all of the software with the desired language.  I hope this helps you make your decision.

Question 4

I have Microsoft Office 2010, but not professional. Will Access 2013 have any conflicts since an older version of office is already installed?

Accepted Answer

No conflicts, when opening files on newer versions.  But the more complicated tasks you do in a newer version, the less compatible it may be in an older version of Office.   Office 2010 compatibility shouldn't have any big issues though.

Question 5

can i uninstall the software on my primary computer and reinstall on a secondary computer?

Accepted Answer

If it is a downloadable file - NO
If you bought a disk it may work.

Question 6

With the boxed version, can it be installed on another computer at a later date if needed?

Accepted Answer

Yes, as long as it is uninstalled from the original install.
