    Not user friendly. Touch feature is excellent. Needs to have major over-hall understand new version coming out late in year 8.1. Very different from Windows 7. Which is OK but needs complete instructions for usage.

    Why does Microsoft do this with every upgrade?

    Why do they do this? Nothing is where it was in older versions, and setting preferences is very difficult. Not everyone cares about social media and xbox, and it seems difficult to eliminate those icons if you don't want them. I'd go back to an older version in a heartbeat.

    In spite of having opened dozens (hundreds???) of similar pakaging designs, this particular one was so well sealed that while removing adhesive strip from the concealed Product ID Code, 2 of the digits were stripped off the card so as now, I do not know what the number is so I cannot download what I have paid for. Very frustrated, especially since this is apparently the only means available to have MS Office in standalone license and not be forced into the cloud. ALTHOUGH.... to install in Windows8, I learned you must first have a cloud based account and provide that info to Microsoft.

    It has changed the entire set up of my computer & had to disable the OneNote so I could print. Wanted to be able to do Word documents. Really disappointed & trying to figure out how to return it. Not even sure if it is a yearly fee rather than the software.
