    If I purchased a particular year Microsoft Office, then I should be able to continue to use that year even if it is two years later. All this company cares about is the "all mighty dollar". Not their customers. Would give negative stars if possible!!!

    Gates must have blown all of his wealth on Epstein Island because he sure didn't put it into his products. 4th computer in 3 years, right off the box updates for hours and runs slower than my 90s dial-ups. Email? Lol, I can get USPS mail sent faster.

      The sleep option is a suggestion and it's built into the program to just turn off your computer because that never occurred to them would cause any problems to anyone to randomly turn off your computer. It's a garbage company and a garbage computer

      Unreliable hardware. Seemingly designed to fail. Oo. 1 year has passed. Systems begin to fail. It'll cost you money to fix. Who knows what system will need to be repaired next. Not to mention their absolutely terrible customer service. Good luck getting ahold of them.

      Microsoft is the most controlling, demanding, greedy, tyrannical, self serving company of any company anywhere, only google can compete with it's corrupt practices. How is it that they (Microsoft) are allowed to FORCE people to use what they want them to use? How is it that they can legally COST people money by making a new operating system that makes software purchased by the consumer redundant and unusable? How is it that they can refuse to make themselves available to their consumers when they (the consumer) has issues with their products?

      When is this company going to be held accountable and forced to change their practices AND compensate their consumers for what they (Microsoft) has cost them? Microsoft is the most reprehensible company in the world and regularly BUYS their way out of trouble and law suits. If ANYONE individual or small company did what microsoft (and google) did, they'd be in prison!

      What an awful company. Lost a major file I was working on as a result of their systems crash on 6/12/25. No way to talk to a live person and online support is useless. They're getting ready to roll out Windows 11 as if nothing at all has happened. I'm sorry this company exists. I give their performance one star because zero wasn't an option.

      Such a controlling company. Forces you to sign up and set up for uses you do not want. Terrible customer service, cannot talk to a real person. Constant unexplained program errors. Such a corrupt and greedy company.

      I have been fighting Windows 11 since I got it. Now my system goes into restart over and over. On the phone with someone in another country (texting since you can't talk to anyone). They said to do everything I already did. Now there stating I have to get a technician to remove and reinstall Windows 11. Why should I have to pay again for Microsoft 11 when it's there program causing this. This just sucks! They gave a link to fix, you go into the link on the phone since the computer does not work. Download file and then it tells you no file found.

      Microsoft made it close to impossible or purposefully makes it extremely difficult to get support. They say they have a warranty for their products but they purposefully make it impossible to work on warranty issues. This is deceptive practice.
