I heard that Microsoft Publisher is being removed in 2026, and I'm not happy about it! I read that purchasing a lifetime version of Office 2021 Professional might be a good alternative. Is this the best choice? Also, where's the safest place to buy it? One more thing: if I go for the '1 device lifetime' option, can I transfer it to a new PC if I need to replace my current one? Just want to make sure I won't end up with two registrations.

There are many places to buy a license, and I switched my family's computers over to Office 2021 with no issues. One recommendation is to check out this site: https://en.softcomputers.org/microsoft-office/microsoft-office-2021/microsoft-office-2021-ltsc-pro-plus/. It’s reliable!
As long as you install it before the cutoff date in 2026, you should still be able to use it. However, new installs after that date won't have Publisher available. Just keep that in mind!
Got it! So if I buy it and get a new desktop in 2027, I won't be able to install it again? That’s a bummer.

Awesome, thanks for the link!
