I am thinking of restoring my computer, but the only problem I have is Office. I already have it installed on my computer and I have bought it but will I ever be able to recover it if I restore my computer??
I have the Product key, does that mean that I can download it again?

Office 2010 can be downloaded from Microsoft if you have a valid product key card.

A lot of machines had Office 2007 or 2010 trial versions pre-installed as part of the factory image so as long as you have the product key you should be fine.
You can always download the installation file if needed.

Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.
