Hello everyone, I have a small question regarding my office pack. As a student, I often work on my device. Recently, I had my device fixed and when I checked it once I got it back, I found an older version of the office pack instead of a newer one. With this issue at hand, I was wondering whether I could download a new version of the office pack when my laptop has the old one, and if it can affect my device somehow. To be precise, I know the possibility of downloading another version. However, I don't know how to proceed when doing so.

I hope my question reaches you, and I would be grateful and open to any of your suggestions and propositions.

    Microsoft Office is designed to run on Windows operating systems. Different versions of Office may have specific compatibility requirements with different versions of Windows. For example, Office 2019 or, Office 2021 may require Windows 10 and above, while earlier versions may be compatible with Windows 7 or 8. It's essential to ensure that your version of Office is compatible with your Windows version.
