In
order for some files to open and display correctly, you
may need to install other applications on your computer.
If you are having difficulty opening or displaying certain
files, you can use this page to download the appropriate
viewer applications to your computer so these files display
correctly.
Please
be sure to click on the Help Center tab to confirm that
your computer meets the supported system requirements.
Generally,
if you have a newer computer and/or operating system, these
applications will already be installed; and no additional
installations are necessary. For example, if your computer
has a relatively new version of Microsoft Works or Office,
you should be able to open all Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
files, respectively.
