This document explains how to completely uninstall Office 365.
Note, moving from Office 2011 to a newer one may require a subscription for Office 365 or a separate purchase of Office 2016 key. Even if you choose to simply steer away from Microsoft products altogether, you have done your Mac a favor by completely removing space hogging apps you will not use along with leftover components. Make sure the name of your hard drive doesn't contain spaces, characters such as a slash ( / ), or commas. If it does, rename your hard drive and then run the Office setup wizard. Remove previous Office files. Remove any previous Office licenses, preferences, and subscription files that might prevent Office.

Examples of possible errors that could be resolved by fully uninstalling Office 365 include: Inability to open up Office 365 applications, receiving error messages, sporadic issues that result in lack of fully functionality, etc.
