Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote get improvements

New day, new updates for Windows 10, but in addition to those released as part of the Patch Tuesday rollout, users who have already installed the new operating system can download and install new versions for a number of apps through the store.

Today, the software giant has released updates for the Office suite for Windows 10, now called “Mobile,” which is available free of charge for computers running the new OS.

Word Mobile, Excel, Mobile, PowerPoint Mobile, and OneNote have all received updates today, but just as Microsoft does in the last few weeks, there’s no change log available with the download. So yes, you can download and install the new versions from the store, but you won’t know what’s new, which is quite a problem for those who want to have full control over the things they get on their PCs.

On the other hand, the absence of change logs could be a sign that all these apps have only received bug fixes and performance improvements, which still makes them download-worthy for all Windows 10 users.

Needless to say, the new versions might already be there on your computer in case you haven’t changed the default store configuration, as Microsoft set the store to automatically download and install new updates.

Otherwise, just fire up the store and look in the downloads and updates section for the new versions of the Office apps and get them right away.
