4. Click on the file tab (first one left corner)


5. Click on Export and a window will open

6. Ensure that "all" is checked off

7. Name the backup "before removing office"

8. Ensure the backup will be saved in My documents (see window above)

9. Click on Save

This is an urgent matter, I do hope that your friend will not try to install it and register the product because you will be doomed.

You will not be able to install on your computer, that is if you have only one license. If you do try to install it, it will say that it is counterfeited and your entire system after 30 days will be jammed.

I suggest you retreive your disk forthwith before it's too late otherwise I will no longer ba able to help you.
