Microsoft Word 1.05

Application file:

After much searching I managed to find the elusive Microsoft Word 1.05. The file included here is a .dsk image of the original disk, which also includes the invisible and protected file that is used for verifying you have an original disk. If you copy this version of Word to another disk and launch it from there you will be prompted to insert this floppy image so it can check for the file. However, you can boot from this disk and launch Word without any problems using Mini vMac.

Microsoft Word 1.0

Arthegall — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 11:33:17 +0000

Application file:

word_1.0_german.dsk_.zip

This is a project page for Microsoft Word version 1.0.
Until we find a good collection of original media and docs, much of what we have here will be a hodgepodge.

The archive is a user-created disk image based on the German version of the software. It doesn't have the original system folder or help file on it.

The screenshots are of the English version of the app, but taken from a German website.

The original media pictured is a backup disk of the English version purchased from Microsoft back in the day but sadly now corrupted.

Compatibility:

Crashes in SSW 7. Presumably not 32-bit clean.
