When you’re installing, you may get a "Something went wrong…” error. Or, if you get some other error, see General troubleshooting for installing Office 2013 and Office 365.
After you have Office installed, try creating a few documents. If an Office program looks blurry, displays as all black or all white, the screen flickers, or looks different on different computers, see Office 365 doesn’t look right. More information: You can install the latest version of Office on up to five computers that you use. After you’ve completed the installation, make sure you have automatic updates turned on. NOTE: You can also install the latest version of Office on your Surface Pro. You’ll have all the same programs as Office on a PC. |
