Default Windows Asks if i want to update programme when I'm trying to uninstall

I recently recieved a second hand computer from a friend and found out that the installed copy of Microsoft word is illegal. I have a legal copy that I want to install but want to uninstall the illegal copy first.
However, when I click uninstall a pop up comes up asking if I want to allow the programme to update software onto my computer. If I press no, nothing happens. I've heard somewhere that the one thing you shouldnt do if you have an illegal copy of a programme is to update it because then the publishers will find out its an illegal copy. So I dont want to chose the yes option and potentially get into trouble for something that I am simply trying to remove.
Any help?
Thank you
