Switching from the installed version of M365 Office to the cloud-based version

1. Sign in to Microsoft 365:
   • Open your web browser and go to myapplications.microsoft.com.
   • Sign in with your MC1username@cunet.carleton.ca account and password.
2. Use Web-Based Apps:

• • Once signed in, you’ll see web versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other Office apps.
  • Click on the app you want to use—everything runs in your browser without needing an installation.

1. Save & Move Your Files:
   • If you have documents stored locally, you can upload them to OneDrive for seamless cloud access.
   • Sign into OneDrive and upload files, or drag and drop them directly.
2. Set OneDrive as Default Storage:
   • When working in Microsoft 365, files are saved automatically to OneDrive.
   • You can also set OneDrive as your default save location in installed Office apps for easier syncing.
3. Consider Uninstalling the Installed Version (Optional):

If you no longer need the installed version of Microsoft Office, you can uninstall it via:

• • Windows: Go to Settings > Apps > Installed Apps, then locate Microsoft Office and select Uninstall.
  • Mac: Open Finder, go to Applications, find Microsoft Office, and drag it to the Trash.
