MAS also has links for official Windows and Office.
i tried https://rentry.org/office-guide this , but iam stuck at this part .\setup.exe /configure OfficeConfig.xml , keeps saying cant find the config file . im using windows 11
nevermind thanks, i found straight on MAS github for the links to installers and the steps for how to do it, thanks
I’m going to have to amplify Clownsinspace2’s suggestion of libreoffice.
It is free and open source. It will output files in any way you want including MS readable formats.
yea its just hard getting used to new UI, unfortunately i have fallen into Microsofts comfortablity trap
I had the same issue when I moved from Office XP to OpenOffice, then switched to Libre Office. Then I had I job where I had to maintain multiple laptops for uses in our meeting and presentation space. Included on those laptops had to be Office. I tried switching back to Office, and found myself always reaching for Libre instead.
Youll benefit so much once you rip the bandaid off, saves so much time instead of fathing around torrent sites.
In combination with this, you can change the ui, as other reply said.
But MS changes the layout every new release. LibreOffice is customizable, and stays the way you choose.
MS Office has had the same basic layout for well over a decade now though?
OP am glad you found the answer.
Adding this here for future reference if needed:

Official downloads from MS, perma activation via the scripts.
Works for Windows (all editions) as well.
Which version?
365?
