WPS Office

WPS no longer free and amazing the amount of space it used up

Earlier in the year with no warning my FREE use of WPS changed to read only of my files demanding subscription. On website says free use still available with limited facilities which appear to be read only. no saving of edited files. Uninstalled and it was amazing the number of Kingsoft and WPS DATA files and storage space used and still existing even after uninstalling. Suggest uninstalling with the option to delete data ticked. After doing this do a search for any remaining Kingsoft and WPS files to delete mainly stored in Appdata. Then install LibreOffice or similar which is completely free, very good and feature rich. Some files e.g. .xlsx extension can be read but takes a long time to load so resave as .xls or .ods files. If you are using a lot of complex macrofunctions in .xlsx files yoi# may lose some of the macros but I don't appear to have lost any functionality. Alternatively use web based Microsoft 365 Free Web Apps or Google Docs. I will never use anything from Kingsoft / WPS again!
