Installation of Microsoft Works 9.0

I have years of files revenue and expense of database Works dating back to 2005. Now I get this new laptop and I find that I can't use my Microsoft Works version 9.0 to access older files or continue with new ones. I have Microsoft Works 9.0 CD drive I bought about 5 years when I had to upgrade to Windows 7. This new laptop is not a CD player. I have Win 7 installation disc. If I have 10 to uninstall and install 7 Microsft Works will be usable? How do I install it without a CD player? Alan

There have been mixed reports here on Works 9.0 compatibility with Windows 10. Some were able to install and run and others have had problems.  In order to try the installation you will need an external USB optical drive. My advice to you is to migrate your files to a less volatile format.  Sooner or later, and probably sooner, your files of works will be unavailable.  There is a converter available that can read and save works files in Microsoft Office, but I don't know about its general compatibility with versions of Windows and Office.

  • Restore complete system crashes at the installation of ms works bundle

    When you try to restore the complete system on a windows vista computer it keeps getting hung up to install MS Works Bundle. I was able to load all food 3 DVD then when it gets to the screen of custom installers it starts to install everything and then to hinder.

    The screen has several windows. We have the Windows installation and it says that Windows is now put in place the following... Factory process 1.
    The second window has the full system restore with a progress bar (always stuck at 59%) with installation of Microsoft Works SE 9.0.
    The third said install MS Works Bundle... Installing the required software. It may take a few moments.
    I left twice to run at night and always, it is stuck on this screen and goes no further.

    Hello

    I suggest that you follow these steps and check if the problem persists.

    Step 1:

    Temporarily disable any security software and then try to restore your system.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software
     
    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats.  In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Step 2:

    If this does not help, test the issue in a clean boot State.

    Note: Follow step 7 to your computer as usual.

    I only had this laptop for less than 2 months today, when I was with microsoft works suite, word processor he suddenly stopped, I rebooted a document she had auto saved and then closed.

    Hello

    It is a simple generic error message that you will always see when the programs or applications crash.

    Something was wrong, but I can't tell what's wrong with your MS works.
    If you want the event viewer for errors, but to be honest, you can check this will not help you much if you're not computer.

    I gogoled a little and some people brought on the same error in MS Word, but like I said above; This is a generic error message.

    However, the people have this problem than by the new installation of MS Works.
    I don't know if you received a MS Works Mr. disc if so, remove/uninstall the MS Works the system first, reboot the laptop and use the MS Works drive for new installation.

  • Update of security for Microsoft Works 9 (KB2431831)

    I had a Windows Update for the latest month - updating security for Microsoft Works 9 (KB2431831).  During the installation of this update attempt, he asked the installation disc.  Microsoft Works has been pre-loaded onto my desktop Dell computer. So, I don't have the installation disc required to remove this update.  I spoke with Microsoft - they tried to erase without the disc without success.  I called Dell who won't work on the question, because it is now out of warranty.  All ideas except to the ignore the windows of each update works? Thank you.

    I know that's probably not useful to most of you, but I had the same problem and do not think that I had any disc that came with my Dell.  I looked around and found that the original package provided with the Dell XPS has a marked disk Microsoft Works 9.  Insert this disc and run the update succeeded.  So maybe check around to see if you have lying around somewhere...

    I tried to do an update for microsoft works and it always fails.  I just bought this computer in March and it has windows 7 on it.  I get the following error message: the component that you are trying to use is on a CD-Rom or another removable disk that is not available.  Insert the disc of microsoft works, and then click ok.

    I watched all the cd that I got when I bought this brand new computer, but I don't see one that says Microsoft Works on it.  Anyone know what I can do to fix this?

  • Windows Update, error: "Windows Modules Installer has stopped working and was closed".

    Whenever I run windows update, and try to install an update for Vista, I get the error message"

    "Windows Modules Installer has stopped working and was closed"

    . This has happened for quite awhile and I tried many suggestions on the web. If you do an internet search, you will see this seems to be a fairly common problem, but I can't find any official solution of Microsoft. I am afraid that I do not receive the latest updates and security patches so would like to help with this question.

    Thank you

    Hi guys

    I had installed up-to-date antivirus software and my problem seems to start after an update from Microsoft. Do a search on the web and you will see similar stories. I spent so much time trying to solve this I think it's better just to do a re-install. Certainly not the resolution I had hoped, but appreciate this type of questions are almost impossible to solve the problems through intermittent mail such messages.

    Thank you
