download belarc advisor  should able find office 2007 key listed.  can use disks provided install on reset computer or can download office 2007 from:  download earlier versions of office  (you can verify product key well).

it best if uninstall office 2007 before resetting computer.

you can use office 2010 backup facility backup your personal files, photos, music etc.  need backup external hard drive or dvd.  not sure music, can backup 'word', excel, files photos copying them dvd or other hard drive.

please come if need further assistance. 

ps: if reset computer returned factory settings, in same state when purchased it. need reinstall windows 10, not sure how go on free download period has lapsed.  see if microsoft support can assist this
