Hello

 

I am not technical and have purchased a new laptop.  I am having problems with how to use word documents.

 

My problem is how to transfer an old CV onto the new word document, amend and save it.

 

I sure it's really simple but I'm near to tears now.

 

When I go onto the red box Microsoft symbol it is asking me to sign up for a subscription which I can not afford.  I only want to have access to a word document.

 

Can anyone help me please

 

Kind regards

Debbie

It is a TRIAL version and you can only use it for 30 days or so. You should be able o use it within 30 days. After 30 days, you have to pay to keep it (probably for 1 year). Please use the following free products to edit Word documents. Yu can do many more things.
