Pardon me while I'm having a major Duh! moment. I don't recall ever installing an "ordinary" version of MS Office 2010, so I figured that...
That did it. I got my .doc file-making ability back. That said, I "m not sure at all, why I couldn't do a repair install of MS Office from the...
N/m. I clicked on the installation files (I downloaded it, didn't get it from a CD), and it is giving me the option to repair. I'll do this and...
Thanks, Tony, but I don't see an option to Repair or Change. This screenshot gives you what I see.
Yes, it is 2010 Office Professional Plus. Its been on this laptop since I first bought it (the laptop). Would a repair install be in order? I...
OK, but even if I did, you're saying that that would remove certain items from the right-click menu? At any rate, any way to get the .doc...
I recently changed the icon for a program (Chrome--actually the Iron browser--has an app shortcut for Gmail) that is on my taskbar. I changed the...
Or better, how can I bring it back? I like using my right-click menu to create a new doc, but now the only options are a few OpenOffice options....

If you have Libre Office or OpenOffice, or MS Office 2010--these programs can open WPS files. After opening the file, you could simply save it as...
Copernic isn't bad, mind you, but I just found the way they arranged the results to be not so good. They sort either by location or by date...
I don't know how Windows does it, but Copernic has an adjustable time frame of "x minutes of idle time" before it updates the index. So if you...
OK, when you mentioned spending money, I thought you meant for a pro desktop search, not upgrading the hardware so FileSearch would go faster. :D...
If I could get something that was a bit more consistent that copernic and Windows, I don't know.... say $50. A trial period of a full-featured...
Yes, I did try it. Just to show you what I'm talking about, I tried searching for "revolutionary war" and it took over a minute to find more than...
FileSearch looks interesting, but it is not an indexed search. In other words, it searches everything again, each time you enter a search term....
Agent ransack takes a bit too long, compared to the traditional (indexed) desktop search. Thanks anyways.
Everything Search doesn't search the contents of files, which is a showstopper for me.
Google has abandoned one of its best products (Google Desktop Search), and I haven't been happy with either of two replacements that I've tried,...
OK Now I see where DVDFLick comes in. I'll give that a shot, and see what happens.
