[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1837042, member: 190607"] It is pretty well settled in the law that software licensed to one person (not a business) can be sold to another person, even if the EULA (end user licensing agreement) says otherwise. The seller has to erase all copies of the software so that they retain no copies, and they have to give up all original disks that it came on and licensing codes/keys. [url=https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20091001/1805496397.shtml]Court Once Again Confirms Right Of First Sale For Software: You Own It, Not License It | Techdirt[/url] It sounds likely that the original poster might find Microsoft Office in either the System or User Applications folder. However, if it isn't working, and the seller didn't give them the license key, they may be SOL. [/QUOTE]
