    Years ago, I added an alternate user to my computer. I use microsoft word with the first user, how can I add word to the alternate user? I'm Just too old, I had another senior moment.

    I have a second user account set up, I just don't have word added. Do I have to create a whole new account?

    if you have word installed on your computer, it should already be in the start menu on the second user account. if you cant access it, you may have to log into the admin account and give permissions to the second user.

    You are right King and Dom, I spent the last 20 minutes or so in the help section of Office looking for some reason why it wouldn't show up already. I can't find one, I even set up another user account and tried to disable it but it's always there so I can't see a reason why it wouldn't be there now even under limited it's there

    It's on the primary account and in the start menu on the left side as an Icon. can't find it in either start/all programs. How do I get to the Admin account
