What version of Microsoft Works is delivered with a Compaq R4010US computer? year 2005, XP

I had to restore my computer a few months ago and when I did, the work has not been reinstalled. I bought Works 9, but I think I would have preferred the version that came with my computer. (mainly because I can't resize the window of processing for some reason any)

I tried to ask HP, the manufacturer of the computer, what version it came with. The first person that I spoke to said that it is version 6. Later, I noticed that Wikipedia (the page of Microsoft Works) seems to hint that he was either version 7, 8 or 8.5. I tried to ask another worker of HP, who said that they do not have this information. Amazon sells several versions and version 8 is the first that indicates whether for an XP platform.

If possible, can I degrade to version 8 or 8.5 works?

Hello Asj127b,

Let me see if I can explain what Shekhar was trying to convey.

None of the operating systems of Microsoft such as Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 have an Office Suite or Microsoft Works. However, OEMs Original (OEM) such as Acer, Gateway, HP, Toshiba, Dell, etc. may decide to include different software that is pre-installed on their computer as a package with CD burning software, software etc. photo.  They will also sometimes offer a package of the printer, but it's the OEM. It does not come from Microsoft, the OEM had to buy the software to install on their computer. Or you can buy a package of details of the operating system. You would have to buy Microsoft Works separately.

Therefore, we cannot tell you what version of Microsoft Works is installed on your HP computer. OEM, HP in your case should be able to tell what version of Microsoft Works is pre-installed with your computer model. The onus of HP to provide you with this information.

I'm sorry that you are not satisfied with the version of Microsoft Works that you bought but you can get used to it, the more you use.

Sincerely,

Marilyn
