Software for Windows issues

I have Microsoft works on my computer and I don't know if I can use it really because I've never bought licenses. It didn't download it illegally or anything, it came on my laptop when I bought it in 2009. I also have microsoft office 2007 programs, such as excel, one note, word, power point, maybe a few extras. It seems to me that Microsoft Works is free but I don't know? My 2007 Microsoft office programs on the other hand I get a popup to register when I opened the: for Example(I tried opening Microsoft Office Word to create a document and a message poped up asking for a license key). So I guess that Microsoft Office software is not free? (Because I'm asked to buy or enter a license key, if I a). If I don't have a license key, it says after opening or using the program 25 times some features will be unavailable. This message is displayed in Microsoft Office that is. So my question is really what can I legally use without the worry of feeling like I didn't not pay to use this program. There someone get where I come from? As I said Microsoft Office software came onto my computer, just as a trial is all that they gave me and that's fine. I won't use it if I am not allowed to anymore. But I would only use of Microsoft word, if it's free?

Help, please. Thank you.

9Hello InvalidRegistry,

After doing a Google search it seems that Microsoft Works 9 is available only to OEMS (Original Equipment Manufacturer, i.e., the manufacturer of PC.) It is not available for download. That is why your copy is a full copy, not a trial. I understand that if you click on the help on the main toolbar option works, you should see the product key number appears. Sorry I can't confirm the product key in help (about), but I have more the machine that had originally installed works.

By the way the PC I have referred to as having installed works was at the time of 2009/2010.

This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

  • Update of the NXT software for windows 7?

    Absolute 100% beginner full here on Robots.

    Opens a NXT Mindstorms NXT kit (that I bought years ago but never opened) to start from scratch and learn.  Built the first model of robot 3 wheels and went to install the cd so I can plug the robot in my computer for what I assume is a certain type of download that will program the device to move (?) and the cd says it is only for Windows XP and I have Windows 7.  Thus, it will not install and so I'm stuck unless someone knows of a specific download that takes care of this, that is, for NXT v.1.1 but for WIndows 7 software.  Advice/help Plmk because I really want to get into this hobby, but I'm stuck here early!

    Thank you!!

    Thlorian,

    I was able to run the NXT 1.1 on Windows 7 Setup when forced to run in XP compatibility mode and run as administrator based on this Windows caring Page.

  • How to restore the audio software for windows XP

    original title: Audio for windows XP software

    I must have accidentally uninstalled the program that runs the audio on my computer during the uninstallation of an another grosgrain. What should I do? I have absolutely no audio now! Is it possible I could still be on my computer somewhere? Is there a program I can dpwnload?

    I did this for your hardware in particular, from the Microsoft Update Catalog. Otherwise, he would never install them for you.

    The download link, then unzip it into a folder.

    Open Device Manager and right-click on this point, identical to the front. Choose update driver software.

    Browse my computer. Let me repeat. Have the disk. Browse.

    Find and double click on STWRT.inf in the extracted folder. Click ok then next and it will install.

  • HP Scanjet G4050 - where is the complete software for Windows 8.1?

    Where is the complete software and drivers for Scanjet G4050, for use with the Windows 8.1, 64-bit operating system?  I hate going back to have only the bare basic software and the functionality of the driver.

    Hello

    According to any documentaion, there should be a complete software functionality for Windows 8.1.

    I assumed that the full client software was wrongly not attributed to 8.1 Windows, I guess it should support it due the last date of update for this installation.

    I also tried to check by launching the installer... the system check was placed very well on Win 64-bit 8.1, without any error incompatibility...

    Try to install the software from the following link and check to see if that can help you:
    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/softlib/software12/COL53034/DP-127944-1/setup_full_G4050_14-5.exe

    Please let me know if this is useful,
