Free Alternative to Microsoft Word Starter 2010
Greetings Ya'll,
This is my 1st post, & since I'm trying to be a "sponge" on how Windows 7 operates, I imagine that I'll have many more.
I've been using Microsoft Word Starter 2010, up until it started freezing my PC. I actually had to hit Control/ Alt/ Delete in an attempt to get out of Word, & free up my PC. That took me to a screen that showed me that OFFSPON.EXE was not responding.
I ran a web search for this & found that it was somehow tied into the "Ads" that are supposed to come up on Word Starter 2010.
The document that I was putting together is frozen, anytime I click on to Word, & I have to repeat the process of Control/Alt/ Delete all over again.
My question is, ..., What is a recommended "Free" alternative for Word Starter 2010?
I do not want to store my data online, or on a "cloud", but on my PC.
I've also been reviewing several sites that offer Free software, & there seems to be good results with "Libre", & "Open Office", but, I'm also seeking more input on these two, or possibly any other alternative.
Any thoughts?
