Hi there
I posted a thread the other day about how I had malware on my pc that (hopefully) I am clear of after a clean install and beefing up my security software - Bitdefender and Malwarebytes.
I mentioned that it had made me paranoid about using my PC now, like this...
I bought MS Office Professional Plus 2019 off a big online retailer. Frustratingly, I realised after that it was actually not them selling it but a third party reseller. I assume it has come from decomissioned PCs or something, maybe even from a company with unused licences. Anyway it installed but....
I am far from an expert on this but I wondered if they (as the original holder of the licence) would have admin rights or something which would allow them to access or control my pc?
I partly say that because some things I uninstalled (teams) which came with it, then reinstalled themselves? Am I being paranoid or should I be worried?
Thanks, Lily.
