I have had Office 2003, 2007, 2010, 2013 and 365 on the same computer without problems. I currently have Office 2010 and 365 on my computer without problems. These should have different locations for your user templates folder location. You can add Office 2021 to your computer without uninstalling Office 2013. In migration and give me a chance to fix what 2021 breaks.

I am happy to report none of my concerns materialized. I decided to just dive in and install 2021.

It took me over a year to get Word 2013 into a form I was comfortable with and I still miss the unlimited interface customization options I had previously in Word 2002. Ten years later and I’m still not a fan of the barely customizable Ribbon. The last time I upgraded was from Word XP (2002) to Word 2013 and boy was that a shock and disappointment.

I’ve been using DOCX and will this force a new file format on me?.Custom template that adds right-click autocorrect items.Will I be able to get my customizations, custom Ribbon tabs and Ribbon groups?.Can I import and get all the customizations out of my 2013 Normal template?.I understand you need a Microsoft Account to download it, but I want to use it completely offline and save all my files locally, like I’ve been doing for the past 40 years.Will installing the 2021 version leave my previous installation of Microsoft Office Home and Student 2013 intact? It would be a big help in migration and give me a chance to fix what 2021 breaks.I recently saw a good price in a Memorial Day sale on HP for the newest version, Microsoft Office Home and Student 2021 ($99.99) and I’m thinking of upgrading just because I haven’t done it in ten years, but I have serious reservations. I'm still using Microsoft Office Home and Student 2013, mainly just for Word 2013, and happy with it.
