I am looking for the archived Microsoft Task Launcher that contains both a Works and a Word, word processor program.

Hi @CJ243,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to assist you.

 

I see that you are facing an issue with your PC.

 

Microsoft Works has been discontinued and development was stopped in 2009 – but you can still use it on your Windows 11/10 PC by installing it in Compatibility Mode. This software supported Windows Vista and earlier versions.

Install & run Microsoft Works on Windows 11/10
While it is no longer officially available for download, you can get a version of Microsoft Works ISO image here from archive.org. Once you have downloaded it, double click on the downloaded image to mount it.
