Default Reinstall Office

When i bought office, it was good for 3 pcs. my computer i guesses went crazy
so i got system recovery and i lost everything on my pc. i want to reinstall
Office without using another of 1 of the 3 installation that i have(which now
i only have one left/ i previously used another for my laptop) so how can i
reinstall office without using my last installation? i hope i made sense.

You aren't allowed to have more than three installations running
concurrently. That means you can't install it and use it on more than three
computers at the same time. For example, if you have 2 desktop computers and
a laptop in your home you can install it on all three of these devices.
Should you need to install it on a fourth computer you'd need to uninstall
it on one of your three other computers first. With that in mind, you should
be fine installing it again on a computer in which it was previously
installed and shouldn't encounter any difficulties and it won't "count" as
another installation.

Ruth,

Not to worry. go ahead and re-install your Office. The installation process
does not use up the number of times Office can be installed, but rather
activation links the Office installation to a specific computer based on a
record of key components of its hardware configuration. As long as you're
re-installing Office on the same computer, you can re-install as many times
as you need.
