You have to license the product to be able to use your files.

Please visit this site: https://products.office.com/en/products?tab=O-Home

 

You can temporarily use https://office.live.com/start/Excel.aspx#

    I've had Office 365 (purchased copy) for the last eighteen months but am now seeing "unlicensed copy" at the top of my Excel. Why and what should I do about it?

      Hi Susanne,

       

      I had same issue once. Have no idea what was the reason, just uninstalled Office, deactivated that PC installation on O365 portal and installed again from the portal - that helped.

       

      Assuming what portal shows you have valid license and not exceeded number of installations.
