When Microsoft introduced the new features of Win10, it specifically mentioned the general-purpose version of Office. Does that mean that with this general-purpose version of Office, we can solve office software problems? Let us explore the truth today.

The Universal Edition is based on the Office version of the Windows Store, so the first step is to open the Windows Store and search for "Office" to see Word, Excel and PPT.

Search Office

You can find these apps are free, does that mean we can't even buy Office in the future?
