I’m sticking with my old faithful Office 2003, on my Windows 7 PC, thank you very much.

When my XP desktop died, I cried. I lost a scanner and laser printer, because they didn't have Win7 drivers.

When my Win7 desktop died, I cried. I almost lost a scanner and color laser printer, because they didn't have Win10 drivers.

I did discover Virtual Box and managed to get a working version of Win7 running in it. Now, when I need to print or scan, I can run the Virtual Box and print from that Win7. It is kind of cumbersome to have to do that, but that is better than having to buy a new printer and scanner.
