- Office 2016 is not available directly from Microsoft. Some retailers still have it. Microsoft is selling Office 2019.
- If purchasing newer office (2016, 2019,365), note which applications are included.

1. At the present time, I am using LibreOffice 6.1 and am having no problems opening my password protected docx.
2. I have tried to open the document directly from Word 2007with no luck. Have no idea why because it's supposed to open docx docs.
I run Office 2013 on my other computer, I wish I could put it on this computer until my other computer is fixed but that can't happen. I'm going to get a newer version of Office, probably 2016 cause I can't afford 2019. I'm not going to install Office on this computer. As long as I get my email and can use LibreOffice, I'll just stick it out till my other computer is fixed
