    Hello

    I don't know about the time of resolution, however I can tell you what I did this morning.

    1. Clicked my profile picture
    2. scrolled to subscriptions
    3. Selected the 'Microsoft 365 Family' entry -
    4. Followed the instructions from there. The .exe file normally does to the downloads folder as you will know. I just double click, etc and the SW was uploaded.
    5. I also restarted the laptop for good measure.

    My theory is that the laptop just needed a cleanout of of some erroneous files which had the licence problem and my laptop had not received them. I left it on by mistake.

    Try that. I hope this solves the situation.

    Good Morning!

    Thank you for this, made my life easier :-) Unfortunately I am still having licensing issues. Is there a time frame on when the issue might be resolved?

    Still unable to share. Both email and link creation say that the link isn't working.

    This is 24h+ now that my family member has been down. All services on the service status screen show green, but obviously something is STILL not working.
