I have a problem and although the laptop is my mother Krepiert, she now has a new laptop where Office 2016 and 2010 is on it. Problem is her old laptop was equipped with Windows XP and has written all Word files in WPS. The Can't Read Office 2010 nor 2016. I also looked at converters on the internet but nobody seems to work properly, just one page I found seems to do but I'm not sure if I want to upload the data to download it then convert it back down are important too Word data here.
Can someone help? LG
The page I mean: https://online-umwandeln.de/konvertieren/wps-in-doc/
Looks in my opinion serious, you can do
First you have to sort: WPS files are not Word files.
They are from Microsoft Works. This is something else.
Apparently, Microsoft can't or will not manage to open works-files in Office.
A workaround that could work is to open the works files with https://www.andysblog.de/ms-works-dateien-mit-libreoffice-oeffnen - and then save them in Office format (Word, Excel, etc.).
Short Complement: I tried it myself on some of my old files. Works flawlessly - you have to choose the character encoding when opening. That's all.
I've tried to install it but somehow not very funny in C: Programs is the order displayed even when uninstalling it is displayed only missing any executable files
I'm sorry. Based on the grammar I can't really read what you mean or gone wrong.
If Libre Office can't be installed, then it is suspected that something was already completely wrong with the system before.
