Cannot see mail attachment - it’s asking for a product key

Hi everyone, I’m at my wits end, when opening an attachment on emails it’s asking for a product key, I’ve tried typing in the product key that’s on the sticker on my laptop but it does not work.

It’s a new laptop that I sort of won
Can you all please help?

Your posting is pretty confusing.

Do you have Toshiba notebook?
How old is it?
Do you use original Toshiba OS you got with this notebook?
Was notebook originally and properly packed when you got it?
Do you use preinstalled Outlook?

Please post some facts that can help us to understand you.

Every Toshiba notebook is offered with preinstalled OS and Microsoft office 60 days trial version.
So, you can use it 60 days for free. After this period of time you must buy valid licence code or product key.

Product key at the sticker has nothing to do with Microsoft office. This key is for Windows and this is evidence that you use legal OS licence.

I don’t know which application do you use for mails but fact is that key at the bottom of your notebook cannot be used for Office activation.

OS means operating system.
Toshiba has nothing to do with Microsoft and Office.

Check preinstalled Office. There must be an option to buy licence online.
