I restored to before the update and all was fine. But I like to keep the thing up to date. So annoying. I have to right click and click open to see the content of the folder. If by folders, you mean files, these articles explain how to set or change default programs for opening files. My family is using five PCs, all fully updated to the latest Windows 10 and all but one are using Word We are heavy users of Word , using it daily and often.
I have had only one problem with Word and that was easily fixed with a Repair function of a reinstall. Otherwise, Word and Windows 10 get along just fine. Why v. Yup, I hate the ribbon because it takes up too much space which is a real problem on the laptops but mostly because the ribbon cannot be extensively customized the way I like it.
When I need a function, it slows me down to have to click to a different tab to find what I need where my customized menus in Word have what I need just a single click away. Belonging to a computer user group, we sometimes have friendly competitions where everybody creates a document to see who can type and format fastest.
Most of my friends are using newer versions of Word which involves using the ribbon where I am using Word with my customized menus all showing on the borders of my interface.
My point is that four fully updated versions of Windows 10 v work just fine with Word My updated Windows 10 machines can run software that a new install of Windows 10 cannot. That gives me more screen real estate than using the Office tool bar and when I need it I click on the text menu bar to bring up a ribbon when I need it.
That caused me problems until I found it and shut it off. Since Office is no longer supported, it cannot be updated and so apparently caused problems with updates to Windows itself. I bought a new PC last year with Windows 10 and loaded my existing purchased version of Office I chose to do this as, along with others on here, I was very comfortable with the software particularly Excel which did everything I wanted.
Word, PowerPoint and others are all fine but Excel is dead. Every time, it attempts to do a calculation, the program just shuts down. Even Copy and Paste shuts the software down. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can go back to the situation pre the automatic Windows 10 update? You might try reinstalling it, but you might also simply be out of luck. You probably already know your options: revert to an older version of Windows, upgrade to a newer version of Office, or switch to OpenOffice or LibreOffice after confirming they meet your needs — they, too, are different.
My Excel worked fine with Windows 10 until the last update — which MS says is a critical update — a few days ago. Since then it shuts down when I try and enter data. I reloaded Office , but still the same. I had the same problem as you after the Windows 10 update in May If I try to paste into a Excel spreadsheet or format a cell the program crashes.
However, I reinstalled Excel , and it works! Does anybody have any ideas how to get round this? Can I access to tables in database Access 97 example test. It really depends on the features used in the database. Perhaps backup the database first. Microsoft removed essential features from old versions of Office.
Many users are stranded and unable to upgrade or face enormous loss of customization. Microsoft bragged that Access still worked in Windows Yet they turn blind eye to users of Access by forcing installation of Access , which causes the errors mentioned in this article. The debugging needed to keep Access and Excel 03 running cleanly is minuscule.
Looking for an update about Access We run our accounting office with Access There is much code added to it but for some reason would could never compile it to a later version of Access. We are stuck with it. In light of Win 7 coming to an end we have no alternative but to upgrade to Win Does anyone know if Access still works in Win10? If not, can the program be installed in the compatibility mode and still work? I have happily used these parts of Office since they were released in and have stayed with them trouble free through three different Dell PCs and umpteen releases of Windows including a free upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7.
Unfortunately, 17 years after investing in Office and quickly advancing years myself, I could not find the original installation disks. To my surprise it seemed to install correctly and I was able to load an Excel spreadsheet OK.
So I tried to replace the Excel 97 runtime program, Excel. Is there any way that I can get Office particularly Excel installed on my new Windows 10 PC without having an installation disk for that version? The installation of Windows programs has files scattered in several places and needs the correct registry settings to make them work. One thing you can do is install Libre Office.
Can you copy a program file to another computer and run it? Where are you, Grandpa David? Perhaps I could mail them over, you do the install, and then send them back??
Let me know. If you no longer use that version of Office, you can give him the code to transfer ownership of the program. I still keep my 15 years old computer with XP and Office , because I still need Publisher to maintain my website.
And I have heard that Microsoft is now dropping web creation functionality in their latest versions of Publisher…. My old XP computer still run like a Swiss watch and start a lot faster than my newer computer with Windows There is no use to make new computers times faster if new operating systems are times more complicated and demanding.
I like softwares that are simple, efficient and fast. I invested a huge amount of time learning how to code MS Access and created my own sophisticated database application that took two years of my spare time. I built a fantastic cash register and inventory management program in Visual Basic 6. Would take a massive re-write to make it work in currently supported technologies.
