Windows 10: Excel and Word now show as Unlicensed Product

After one of the most recent Windows updates, I've lost licensing to Excel and Word. They appear with Unlicensed Product behind the program name. For about a month I was still able to make and save changes, but now I am unable to key into either program. I use Excel to keep track of my home business. These programs were installed on the laptop when I purchased it and I am unable to find the Product Key. How do I get full access to these programs again?

Unlicensed Product

I bought new HP laptop from online with in built windows. But I'm unable to create any Microsoft office products such as excel, word or PowerPoint. For example when I opened an excel it displays at the top Excel (unlicensed product) and when I clicked it
is asking for product key.

The machines detects the operating system installed is Windows 10 Home Single Language 64-bit. I also didn't find any sticker in my laptop.

Let me know whether this OS doesn't have the office inbuilt. And advise I how can this be resolved.
