Solve : Word free download?

Answer»

I was just on Cnet and they have a few free DOWNLOADS for WORD 2007, which is what I had been using.  When I had to get work done on my computer, somehow it got deleted and I have no word program.  I am running Windows 10, Intel Core I-5-4460, CPU 3.20 GH2, Ram: 8:00 GB, System Type: 64-bit op sys.  I don't use it much, but there are times when I want to type a letter, a fax, lists I want to print and save.  I have a very old Corel Word program on here from 1998, but when I try to pull up things I have typed before (like my sister's resume), it won't bring them up.  Is it a safe thing to do to download a free Microsoft Word 2007?  I don't want to pay a lot of money for a word program and I saw some on ebay that says they have never been opened, but they say it is for Vista 7 so I don't know if that would work on my Windows 10.  I'm not comfortable doing things with my computer until I ask someone first.  I may make things worse, I'm just not real computer savvy.  The Word 2007 was put on this computer by someone who has moved away with his disk, so can't ask to borrow it again.  Thanks in advance for any advice!

Please give more detail. If the document was saved in the Word Perfect format, it should still be readable by Corel Word Perfect.

EDIT: Do not try free version of any Microsoft PRODUCT. The only really free Office Suites are either Apache or Libre Office. Both can import from other formats. Try this:

The only real downside is that you need to have an internet connection to use it.

I stand corrected.  Quote from: Geek-9pm on January 09, 2017, 05:31:49 PM

They are not the only ones.  I've been using WPS Office for a year or so on a PC I have running Windows 10.  Quote from: Geek-9pm on January 09, 2017, 07:16:02 PM
