Hi all,

My dad has subscribed to the Microsoft 365 Family since 2020 and shared his subscription with the family. The subscription has been renewed this January.

As I using Word today, a pop-up window appeared saying the My subscription has been cancelled.

I log in to my account (using the email that the subscription was shared to) and it says that that subscription has been cancelled.

Some minutes later same thing happens to my sister's account (again shared subscription).

My dad's subscription is still active and he can uses the office normally.

The subscription is clearly active but disabled on our accounts.

Any help?

    My problem is still not solved. Are problems solved regionally or globally? Why is everything already solved for some users, and not for others? Should we wait for some Windows update?

    Hi,

    Odd. Please restart your PC and Office Applications once. This should take care of the issue as per Microsoft.

    I restarted my computer but the problem is not solved. Is there anyone else who still has the problem?
