I purchased version 2024 since my 2021 was no longer working. Excel installed, but Word won't install. It also installed Teams which I have no use for. It would't go to another screen without clicking on it.

    I feel like I am on a merry-go round. I think you are only interested in selling apps rather than supporting your product

    Hello Donna Jeakins

    I understand that you would prefer to speak with someone who can assist you remotely.
