Hi
Before I download the program I have some questions.
1. If I have Word, Works, etc. Will I still have these programs after
downloading Open Office and be able to still use them?
2. Does this program attach trackers to my browser?
3. After downloading will there ever be a charge for using the program?
Thanks
Linda Miller
Hi Linda,
1. Yes, Word and Works will still both function. When you install Open
Office be sure you DO NOT check any checkboxes to make Open Office your
default for Word, Excel or Powerpoint. This has caused some confusion for
some folks in the past. You also want to bear in mind that people who
don't have Open Office won't be able to read an Open Office file. You want
to remember to Save As a Word (.doc) file before sending the file to
someone.
2. No, Open Office won't install any spyware or trackers on your system.
It's 100% safe as far as I'm concerned.
3. It's Open Source software, so there is never a charge for using the
program.
