MS Office 365 cannot be installed


Office cannot be installed under Zorin OS. This has to do with the fact that Microsoft does not provide a Linux version of these applications.

However, you can still use the MS Office applications even if you do not have the programmes installed:

  • Use MS Office in the web version;
  • Use an alternative such as ONLYOFFICE.

ONLYOFFICE is installed on our laptops as standard. It is a good alternative to MS Office and provides the same programmes as you are already familiar with (e.g. Word, Excel, PowerPoint). Even if the layout looks a little different, you should find your way around quickly.


Does that still not fit?

Then you have no choice but to install Windows 10 on your laptop. You can find more information on this page:
