How to download Microsoft Office 2013 free and officially

Download microsoft office for free. Soon Microsoft will launch its new flagship product - Office 2013, which is still sometimes referred to as Office 15. Currently it is available for download to subscribers MSDN / Technet. But if you, like me, this is not and does not want to become, then anyway download microsoft office for free early and you have free. Only one condition - you must have Windows 7 or 8. Retrogrades with XP are sitting on the same ancient office :)

And that's how ↓

Method №1: Office 365 Preview

go to office.com/preview. Then you need to download the installer is very light, which is then "flood" a full office - version of Microsoft Office 365 Home Premium Preview. This is not the final version (ie version 15.0.4128.1025) you can not choose which components to put the package and which are not. You get yourself immediately: Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, OneNote, Publisher, and Access (Visio will not).

Russian version is also available for 32- and 64-bit OS.

For Office 365 Preview nowhere stipulates a limited time operation. Also for its installation does not even need to have administrator privileges on your computer.

Method №2: Office Professional Plus 2013 release

The implication is that you have a Live ID and you downloaded the installer from the TechNet site. In contrast to previous methods, this will set you the final version of Office Professional Plus 2013 release (version 15.0.4433.1506). However, it will last you from the moment of installation 60 days. This time you download the full installer (666 MB, OfficeProfessionalPlus_x86_en-us.img), which enables you to select the components to be installed.

Remember the restriction in the license - 60 days, and please note that the installation must have administrator privileges on your computer. If you do not have these rights, then choose the method №1.
