Free Microsoft Office

Posted on June 22nd, 2011

To access the free version on MS Office, you need a Windows Live account. It is free and you can register for one with your current email address. If you already have an Xbox live account, or you have a Hotmail email account, then you already have one. Go to www.live.com and log in. At the top of the screen you will see a link for “Office”. Once you click on that you will have the option to choose which application you want to run.

When you start a new document you will see the familiar Word, Office or PowerPoint interface that you are used to seeing. This online version is based off of Office 2010, so if you are still using an older version, the interface may look a little bit different to you.

You can do more than just start new documents, if you receive a document from someone, you can upload it to your documents folder. You can then open it and make changes to it. All documents created via the online version of MS Office are available to download to your PC.

Sure this isn’t as great as having the full version of MS Office, but if you are in a household with many computers and don’t want to spring for an Office license for each one, the online version of MS Office should more than suffice for those in school or need a quick way to create a document or spreadsheet.
