What is Windows 8 without Microsoft Office inside?

I just bought a new computer, it came with windows 8 and no word from Microsoft. I used that word 2003 and it worked fine with my school, APUS, but I can't afford the 2013 version so my son loaded 2007 but now it does not work with my school. I'm so frustrated. What good would I have version 8, if I can't use it at all. What a scam

From Microsoft Office 2007, the format in which Office (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.), the files are saved is different from the format used in Office 2003 applications.

Word 2007 and newer versions can, however, save documents in the old format if you wish.

If you look at the extension of file name (the part after the dot), you will see that the files produced by Office 2007 and later versions end with an x.  For example, a Word 2003 file may be named mydocument.doc while the same file saved by Word 2007 would be mydocument.docx

If your school only accepts files in the old format (* .doc), just use the function "save under" when you save a file in Word and select the 'Save as type' be "Word 97-2003 Document (* .doc).  Once you've saved a document in the older format, you can simply use 'Save' (rather than ' save under ') to record subsequent changes in the document.

  • After uninstalling printer Windows Installer and Microsoft Office error "this update package not could be opened"

    Original title: Windows Installer and Microsoft Office problems after you have uninstalled the printer

    I tried to install more than one printer, a HP Photosmart C4280 by downloading the drivers and updates on the HP site. I uninstalled the printer after it failed to scan a document and I had no more use for it. Then the trouble started. When I tried to open some programs (iTunes, Skype, etc.) for the first time after the uninstall of the printer, a window "Windows Installer" popped up. After you have configured Windows Installer, the program would open normally. However, when I try to open any Microsoft Office programs (Word, Excel, etc.), Windows Installer appears, but it turns into a window that reads:
    "This patch package could not be opened. Verify that the patch package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer update package. »

    Microsoft Office programs are open at all, and I desperately need my programs of Microsoft Office to work even faster. I would appreciate it if Windows Installer will stop trying to configure when I open a program also. Can someone help me please?

  • Is a program to open zip included in Windows Vista or Microsoft Office files?

    Try to open a zip file and Windows Vista can't seem to accomplish.  Also have Microsoft Office.  Is there a file that automatically opens zip files in any of the two?  How to open a zip file?

    It is included with Vista, but is called decompression/compression instead of compression/decompression.

    Here's briefly how to do it:http://www.ehow.com/how_4963978_open-zip-files-vista.html.

    If it doesn't, the Zip file associations have been lost somehow and must be repaired (I'm not sure what caused it - maybe some setting inadvertently or the hidden keyboard command).

    Here is a link to how to restore Vista zip file association: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/65254-zip-file-support-restore.html this should restore for compressed files zip file association and hopefully remove of open file (but which may take another measure).

    Here is another link on how to enable and disable the files compressed in Vista: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/93827-zip-file-compressed-folders.html.

    Here is a link on how to restore default binding settings in Vista: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/233243-default-file-type-associations-restore.html. This should also restore default associations of open files that include no zip.

    Between these three links, you should be able to restore files zip compressed file association and not with open files - indeed, return things to their default settings.

    Here are some additional links that may be useful if the three above do not resolve the problem:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/91920-unassociate-file-extention-type.html,http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/restore-and-reset-file-association-in-windows-vista-back-to-original-default/,http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/reset-and-fix-broken-windows-vista-file-ext-and-type-associations-include-exe-com-sys-zip-lnk-folder-drive/and http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/105/1/File-association-fixes-for-Windows-Vista.html.

  • Installation of Windows 7 and Microsoft Office registration.

    I have a laptop gave me a few years ago by my University because of my dyslexia. The lap top came with Vista and Microsoft Office 2007 already installed OME. I have no number or product key, I want to remove Vista and install Windows 7, which I brought it. How can I save Microsoft Office during this operation.

    I don't know what is 'OME of office. "  There is no such sequence.  Perhaps you mean "OEM", but which is not yet say what you have.  Perhaps mean you "Office Home and Student 2007".  For example, why not open Word, click on the file tab, then help.  Your office suite should be registered.  There may be a place where you can download your suite Office 2007.  See http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-office_install/here-are-the-download-locations-for-office-2010/ac67aa2f-dc1c-46f4-8b1d-ca00b3f02a18

    Legally, if someone gives or you sells a PC, they are bound to you or sell you the licenses for the software installed on this PC as well.  Apply to the University for the license keys they need you.  They should also provide all material supplied with the PC as the installation diskettes.

    Maybe your PC has a recovery partition.  In this case, you can create a recovery disc for yorself.  These records must contain the material to reinstall everything that came installed in the factory.  See if you can create these discs, an optical disc or on a USB key.

    There are free tools that can help you recover the licesne key of installed software.  See this: http://answers.microsoft.com/message/1d5260c5-0dff-4756-9b53-82f0edc9c498?threadId=09835b9f-eeb6-4aee-87e0-c553e05e8031

  • Whenever I get close Microsoft Word, it displays a window saying that Microsoft Office Word has stopped working?

    All the documents that I close (if it is registered or not, whether it is empty or not) shows an error message saying:

    Window with the loading bar appears: header 1 - "ofMicrosoft Office Word has stopped working ", heading 2 - "Windows is checking for a solution to the problem... " "

    Changes in wording (remains of load bar): header 1 - "Microsoft Office Word to try to recover your information... ", header 2-"it can take several minutes. "

    It takes then about 10 to 20 seconds until the charge bar disappears and the text becomes: header 1 - "Microsoft Office Word has stopped working ", header 2-"a problem caused the program to stop working correctly." ""  Windows will notify you if a solution is available. "

    This process happens every time.  Sometimes it restarts the program, and other times it ends just (closed) it.  I don't know if this is related to this bug, but I met another problem that began at the same time as this one:

    http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/vistaperformance/thread/f5e2a747-b429-4d55-8a6b-5d5a9b791dd1 (scroll to the bottom of the page of my post) .  That error is fixed now, but the "Microsoft Office Word has stopped working bug" continues to annoy me.

    Could this error be caused by my computer or Microsoft Word?  Does anyone have any information or conclusions of how this error can be fixed?  Is there some registry tweaks which can solve this problem?

    Specifications of the computer:

    Windows Vista Edition Home Premium Service Pack 2 (32-bit)
    Pentium Dual-Core CPU T4200

  • Re-install Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 2007 to keep

    I have an Alienware m15x, I bought from Dell in 2009. I customized my order when I bought, so it came with Microsoft Office pre-installed. The summer is slow and I got diverted by some viruses adware because of my carelessness, so rather than understand how if RID and clean my system, I decided to start again and re - install Windows 7. Is saved in my restore partition so if I restore, office will be re-installed too?

    Your Microsoft Office 2007 will not be saved on the original image. You should have received an identity card of Microsoft product with your system that contains your 25-digit product key. You can use this to download an installer for the product activation and Microsoft. For more information including the download link, see my Download Microsoft Officewiki.

    If you do not have your MPI card, then run Belarc Advisor on your old installation. This utility will show you your Microsoft Office 2007 product key.

    flboriquaeve,
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  For this problem, you will need to contact the PC manufacturer.  If they do not restore disk there probably a restore hard disk partition.  If that's the case then you should be able to access at startup to restore your system if not factory (this will erase all data on the disc normally).  Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers
