Try again.
I guess he missed the part where you said that it was free for personal use.
And he missed the part where, even if you subscribe, nothing quits working after your subscription expires.
As far as I know, there are VERY VERY FEW (maybe 0) devilish rentware-only programs out there that literally lock you out of your documents when the software subscription expires. Adobe doesn't. MS doesnt.
MS Office seems to be heading to subscription only, though. But for now you can still buy one-time purchase versions through MS (the latest is Office 2021). But even if the Office 365 apps expire, you can use your own docs.
I just saw MS Office 365 can be really inexpensive. $99 per year for 6 users on the family plan. $1000 over 10 years / 6 users = $166 each. Very good deal, even if inflation drives the price up to $200 ea, that's $20 per year per user.I bought Office 2021 Pro Plus for $40 USD if I remember correctly. They have such specials on BleepingComputer all the time if someone is looking for an Office or Windows license.
