Windows 10: Can not use MS Office after FORCED Windows Update

I am murderously angry at being FORCED into yet ANOTHER update that ruins my productivity.I am now being asked to re-activate MS Word. Entering a product key leads me to "redeem online' which then opens a broken webpage.There has GOT TO BE a legal way out of Windows constantly destroying my ability to work. MY LAPTOP MY CHOICE.Meantime, any way I can use the software I've paid for?
