Office 2007 Home and Student lost; substitutes clunky, so...
20H2
The background is that two or so weeks ago I experimented with the free substitutes, but found them difficult and lacking. Somehow a strange file appeared, STR.TLB, before Excel and any substitute would open. Neither I nor a repair man, whom I called in to solve an unrelated more serious matter could remove it. Office 2007 was uninstalled, and he temporarily replaced by LIbre Office.
Now I find my carefully(!) guarded Office CD is missing, so will have to buy 2019.
It being ages since downloading a commercial program, Is it best acquired from MS, or a retailer e.g. PC World. Presumably it will download directly to the hard drive. If I want to make a back up can or need I?
