Solved! Do I need to Upgrade my laptop

[Havenoidea]

Hi
I have a robust but old HP EliteBook with Core I5 and Windows &. I need to download Microsoft Office but not sure if I can as everything seems to be for Windows 10. My laptop is grand for what I need it for but do I need to upgrade so I can get MS office? Thanks

So do I need to get a new laptop or is there a way of getting MS Office to suit my archaic laptop as I have documents I need to work on etc? Thanks

I'd probably try using one of the MS Office clones that are available for free

Download LibreOffice | LibreOffice - Free Office Suite - Based on OpenOffice - Compatible with Microsoft

These are generally 99% compatible with MS Office documents.
