OP am glad you found the answer.

Adding this here for future reference if needed:

https://massgrave.dev/

https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts

Official downloads from MS, perma activation via the scripts.

Works for Windows (all editions) as well.

Its best to download it directly from Microsoft and activate it with MAS

MAS also has links for official Windows and Office.

i tried https://rentry.org/office-guide this , but iam stuck at this part .\setup.exe /configure OfficeConfig.xml , keeps saying cant find the config file . im using windows 11

I’m going to have to amplify Clownsinspace2’s suggestion of libreoffice.

It is free and open source. It will output files in any way you want including MS readable formats.

My digital life or use OnlyOffice, its free.

Or Libre Office, also free

I've been using Only Office, it's great. I see no need to use MS Office

OnlyOffice local editors is probably the best drop in replacement for Microsoft office’s basic suite I have found. I’m a professional Linux user stuck in a company that depends on Microsoft products.

Doesn’t cover email, but is very good for everything else.

Can also edit PDF files, sort of. Doesn’t always format well on conversion from PDF to editable, but still workable in some cases

I use onlyoffice too, but are there other foss options? It's just terrible all around. Like you can't even copy and paste text in the writer, formulas don't work for no good reason in spreadsheets, and the android app crashes so often you can't make one formula and get it saved before it craps out. Libreoffice is perfect, but I need the cloud 😅 at this point I'm considering paid options or just crawling back to google
