Microsoft Word where on my computer (Windows 7)?

I wanted to open a file with Word, but I don't know where it is located. I know that I installed it on my computer.

And if you type 'Word' in the research programs & files text box done that reveal the Word shortcut?

PS Si is a new PC, unless it was supplied with Office Starter then any installed version of Word will be an evaluation version. Word/Office does not part of win7

  • where is microsoft working on my new computer windows 7?

    I bought a new HP computer in November, which includes the Microsoft Works word processor program. I used it since then. But I dropped my phone and the screen was destroyed. It was cheaper to get a new one, so I bought a laptop Conpaq Presario CQ-56-110US on 2010-03-10. I had a backup of all my personal files, thank God and so I loaded in, but when I tried to open them, there was no Microsoft Works on the new computer. That's happened? Why the new (Windows 7 also) computer does not include? How to make a copy of replacement without buying one? Help!

    Sometimes Microsoft Works comes on a machine at the time of purchase.  Note that I saidsometimes...  You should check that everything came preloaded on your new machine.  It looks that your new machine came with it preloaded which explains why you can not open your files.

    As to what was on your old machine... you need the CD, then to read the license agreement for Microsoft Works (it's an OEM version) to see if you can load on your new machine. Sometimes OEM versions are machine-specific and may not be transferred.

    You must also confirm that the version that was on the old machine can be loaded on Windows 7.

  • Microsoft Word - moving from one computer to another.

    I have an old laptop with XP Home on it. I bought a new laptop and installed Windows 7 above. Windows 7 is Microsoft word. How can I move old laptop Microsoft Word again?

    Hello MrPPP,

    If you bought Microsoft Word then you should have a CD of Microsoft Word. Just re - install Microsoft Word, using CD on your new PC.

    If Microsoft Word came pre-installed, then, unless the PC manufacturer gave you a copy of the CD in Microsoft Word, you won't be able to mover it from one machine to the other.

    Although Microsoft Word is, probably, the best available word processor application there are alternatives. For example, OpenOffice is free and contains a set of processor (which will open .doc files) as well as a map of computing and other similar to Microsoft Office applications. You can see OpenOffice here: http://download.openoffice.fm/free/?pk=10305

  • I have an Acer computer I want to do a total restore. It came with windows 7 starter edition, and then I bought Microsoft word for it. If Microsoft word will lose if I do the restoration?

    I have an Acer computer I want to do a total restore. It came with windows 7 starter edition, and then I bought Microsoft word for it. If Microsoft word will lose if I do the restoration?

    If you purchased Word on CD, it's no big deal; just reinstall it after the factory restore. If it was bought online, copy the file downloaded to a CD and then reinstall it later.

    Is there a particular reason, why you want to do a restore complete? Have you problems? If so, you can try asking here on how to fix them and do not have to do a restore, reinstall all your programs and all of the updates and service pack 1.

  • Microsoft Word for Windows XP

    I have windows xp home edition and I deleted by mistake microsoft word (I think that's the program hit back then) and I need to know how to reinstall it and where to find it.  I have the disc that came with my pc.  Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

    Word is a word-processing application. It is part of Microsoft Office, not Windows. Versions of Windows contains a simple word processing application, WordPad.

    If you want to reinstall Word:

    Go to the Control Panel programs and features.

    Check the Office on the list.

    Select. Select change or reinstall

    If the option is not available, insert the diskette in MS Office and run the installer.

    If WordPad is missing, it is a different matter.

  • I think that my computer crashed. Microsoft word is gone and I can not activate my virus protection!

    I don't understand. I've been typing in microsoft word, and he just disappeared! I'm going to restore and quoted in the area as being deleted, so I go back to August 1 and restore and then it turns back on and try to put microsoft word and it says it can't because it can't find the file. Then I go in the microsoft security essentials antivirus I have and it won't come on either, says it does not. I have an icon on my desktop for google chrome and I click it and it says the same thing. Fortunately, I keep an additional internet browser so I could go to the line. I uninstall microsoft word completely because that annoying box keeps popping up on. So I try to uninstall security essentials and it says that it cannot do so, to install it again but when I try to do what it says I have to get rid of the old security essentials. In the middle of this chrome turns, but I don't know if the icon on my desktop will work or not and I don't know if I'm safe right now. That's happened? I tried everything to find microsoft word and he's not here.

    I have a windows XP and the computer is only two years old. This morning before all this happened, I uninstalled security essentials and put on a new one just if I have the updated version and it worked fine, and then all this happens. I will say also that for a while now my computer wanted to update microsoft Word 2003 but can never do. Does anyone know what I'm supposed to do now?

    Reset to factory wipes the hard clean of EVERYTHING.

    You need to reinstall your Antivirus, and Microsoft Word 2010 from the original media.

  • Microsoft Word has taken over my computer

    When I click on an icon on the desktop as a sign, Skype, hp Center ect solution I get there pretty 2 Windows Open microsoft word. one for the configuration and the other is for the creation of a word document. How can I get rid of this.

    Hi tsaina00

    Welcome to the Microsoft Vista answers Forum!

    ·                     You use the quick launch to open the application?

    ·                     This phenomenon occurs only with the desktop icons?

    ·                     Since when are you facing this problem? Do you remember all the recent software or hardware changes made on your computer?

    I suggest measures are:

    If it was working fine before, then you can do the system restore. Restore the computer to an earlier time when it was working fine. To restore the computer successfully the following steps;

    i. Click Start, type system restore, right click on the system restore and click "Run as Administrator".

    II. choose the right date, when the system worked very well and follow the instructions in the wizard to complete the process

    If you open the document in Word and copy/paste the content in a
    image editor... Windows Paint (for example)... you can save it as an image
