Can anyone recomend me a good word processor, I'm ready to start wrting the first chapter of my book and I don't seem to have a word processor program, I've not used one for about 15 years and that was on windows XP, I just about coped with that one and would like something similar and easy to use.
Sorry I know its hard recomending tech to me as most of it just goes over my head, but any contributions would be gratefully recieved
I use an old version of Microsoft Word for Windows that's on disk.
Unfortunately, most software of this type doesn't seem to be available as a disk these days, which means a subscription or download.
Luckily, I managed to buy a disk version of Adobe Photoshop in 2021 but now I think I'd be stuck with a subscription for an upgrade although with some software you can pay a one off fee but it's still a download rather than a disk.
This thread has been useful for me too, thanks, as my version of Word is very old and I didn't know about LibreOffice which has been mentioned here twice so I shall take a look.
All the very best to you with your writing.
ps When I first read this I though about my old, dedicated, word processor, before I had a PC and wondered if you were looking for one of those.
You might even still be able to buy one second hand although they would use the now extinct 'floppy disk'.
I've also recently bought an old manual typewriter but that would need to be transferred digitally anyway
