Hello LibreOffice,

I am considering downloading LibreOffice.

Could you please advise me if I can consequently uninstall Microsoft Works
without detriment to my
existing previous saved letters etc.?

Thank you.
Regards,
Jack (Fell)

Yes, you can install LibreOffice and then uninstall Works at your
convenience.

Please ensure you download only from www.libreoffice.org or one of it's
mirrors. Getting it from elsewhere may install some malware on your
computer.

Hello James,

Thank you for your prompt answer.
I have now downloaded LibreOffice and will use whenever possible.

Hi :slight_smile:
You can keep and use both LibreOffice and MS Works on the same machine
as each other. It helps you handle a wider variety of different
formats as each is better at certain types of formats.

And I would add to what Tom said, that it is prudent to leave MSWorks
on your machine until you are certain that you won't need it again.
All you might want to do for now is change the default program for
opening your files.

isn't there a Works format that only Works can read or anyway only Office? am I mistaken? if I am not mistaken, then the OP must keep it until they convert their Works stuff. if I am mistaken, this email is a waste of electrons.
