To activate Microsoft 365 Apps, TLS 1.2 must be enabled by default on the operating system. If your users have dedicated computers and no other users work on those computers, you use product key activation for Microsoft 365 Apps. Using Microsoft 365 Apps with shared computer activation enabled doesn't count against that limit. Normally, users can install and activate Microsoft 365 Apps only on a limited number of devices, such as 5 PCs. Shared computer activation is required for scenarios where multiple users share the same computer and the users are logging in with their own account.
