Hi James,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community. Your interest in Windows 10 Technical Preview is much appreciated.

YES, Office 2007 is compatible with Windows 10, I suggest you to follow the link Compatibility centerand check if it helps.

However, you may upgrade to the latest Office version.

Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.

    I did put in Office 2007, and I was getting the same configuration process when I opened Word, but not with Excel.  So I looked it up and it said to do this to eliminate that problem:  type in my pc in left hand bottom corner.  Click on Windows C. 

    From there click on the following:

    Program Files (x86)

    Common Files

    Microsoft Shared

    Office12

    Office Setup Controller

    Then scroll down where it says SETUP and rename it to SETUPold.  

    This worked for me, and now I am able to open Word without going through the configuration process.   If you try this, let me know how it worked for you.

    Office 2007 DOES run on my Windows 10. However, Office 2007 goes through a lengthy configuration process each time I use it. So to simply print an envelope, I have to wait 5 minutes for the configuration to take place.

    I am switching to Windows 7 due to many problems with Windows 10, so it does not matter anymore.

    It is and if you like Office 2007, just keep using it.

    Service Pack 3 was the last update for Office 207, I believe. Check the version number in any Office program. It should tell you if you have SP3. If not, get it here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=27838
