Then instructions are a bit involved, you have to read the link and follow them.īut as to your other questions about whether you can then simply install from the App Store at no additional charge. You can certainly uninstall your current MS-Office package:
Does this leave any other related files that need to be removed.and what are they?. Whilst, logically this should all work, I'd like to hear from someone with more experience in this arena, and preferably someone who has done this and knows of any issues that I may need to consider.Ĭan I simply just delete these apps by sending them to the trash? Does this then cause any problems reinstalling the Microsoft Office apps via the App Store?. Can I simply just delete these apps by sending them to the trash?. Naturally I would logout of the apps beforehand, but Looking at the Applications folder on my iMac where the Office apps were installed using the Microsoft Installation method, the apps appear just as individual apps (MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc) and there does not appear to be an uninstall application associated with them. I like to maintain a lean and clean macOS at all times, and I'm not a fan of installing and deleting apps without good reason. However, on my first iMac (also running macOS Big Sur) I'd now like to remove the Microsoft apps and reinstall them via the App Store and get rid of the Microsoft Updater application altogether. I have only just learned that Microsoft now supports installing the Office apps via the App Store and have successfully managed to do this on another iMac that has a fresh install of macOS Big Sur. 
This method also installs the very annoying Microsoft Updater application.
I currently have the Microsoft Office 365 suite of apps installed on one iMac which I installed using the Microsoft installation method.
