How do you install it if it is not bought for the admin himself but for another person, e.g. for grandmother's PC?
When I redeem the product key in my Microsoft account, it is tied to my account and Microsoft does not feel able to transfer the licence to another account.
Grandma can't reinstall Office without my Microsoft account. And under Account it says "this Office belongs to xyz" (your grandson).

In other words, how do service providers install this product without tying it to an MS account in advance?

Answer

as you can see, it says: unlimited 1x. this means that it is ONLY valid for "1" PC. if you want to use the software for your grandmother, you must first "INSTALL" it on your PC. Then you can install it on your grandmother's PC.
