Microsoft 365 recovery

I mistakenley removed Microsoft Office from my computer. I have not yet done a reset. Is there any way I can get it back? It came as a part of the computer when I bought it.

    See whether below can help:

     

    1: Repair or Reinstall via Settings
    - Go to Settings > Apps > Installed Apps.
    - Scroll to find Microsoft Office.
    - Click it and choose Modify.
    - Select Quick Repair or Online Repair to restore it.


    2: Reinstall from Your Microsoft Account
    If Office was activated with a Microsoft account:
    - Visit your Microsoft account dashboard.
    - Sign in with the account used to activate Office.
    - Look under Subscriptions or Products you've purchased.
    - If Office appears there, click Install.

     

    3: Use the Manufacturer’s Recovery Tool
    Some OEMs (like HP, Acer, Dell) include a recovery utility to reinstall bundled software:
    - Check your computer’s support app or website.
    - Look for a “Software Recovery” or “Reinstall Applications” option.
