Who has your Office 365 Home licenses?

Arthur J writes “I have several people attached to my Office 365 Home package but can’t figure out who has them and what email address they use.  I know this sounds silly but my family regularly change computers and email addresses.

The information you need is in the Office 365 admin pages, but it’s not clear and Arthur’s confusion is understandable.  Go to the ‘My Office Account’ page and click on ‘Share Office 365’.

On that page is a list of the currently linked users.   You can only see their name and a thumbnail image from their Microsoft account.

Each user might be using one or more Office installs (Windows or Mac) or they may not have any Office installs.

To find out the details of each user click on the Remove link. Don’t worry, you won’t delete anything.  The Remove confirmation page shows the email address used by that person and the number of Office installs they are using.

Make sure you don’t accidently click ‘Remove User’!  Click ‘Cancel’ instead.
