Use Office Web Apps
Microsoft offers free, web-based versions of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. All you need is a free Microsoft account. These versions run directly in your browser and are more than capable of handling typical document creation and editing tasks without requiring an expensive license.
Explore Open-Source Alternatives
If you prefer software installed directly on your machine, look into LibreOffice. It is a free, open-source suite that is fully compatible with Microsoft file formats. It provides a robust, offline-capable experience that mimics the functionality of Office at zero cost.
