Requires x86 or 64-bit Windows. We do not support Windows RT, the ARM-based version, intended for tablets. **Please note**: Apache OpenOffice is distributed as a 32-bit application. It will run successfully in 32-bit mode on 64-bit versions of Windows 7, 8 and 10. But in those cases a 32-bit JVM is required for some functionality. Details are [here](http://www.openoffice.org/download/common/java.html). ## Hardware Requirements Hardware demands are quite modest and even older machines should be able to run OpenOffice: - **Memory**: Minimum 256 Mbytes RAM (512 MB RAM recommended). - **Storage**: At least 650 Mbytes available disk space for a default install via download. After installation and deletion of temporary installation files, Apache OpenOffice will use approximately 440 Mbytes disk space. - **Graphics**: 1024 x 768 or higher resolution with at least 256 colors. ## Windows-specific Features Apache OpenOffice has the following special features on Windows: - Mail client integration via Messaging Application Programming Interface [(MAPI)](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/exchange/aa142548%28v=exchg.65%29.aspx) ## Additional Resources - Click here to [download](http://www.openoffice.org/download/) - Click here to get [Install instructions for OpenOffice on Windows](http://www.openoffice.org/download/common/instructions.html#win) - Click here to get help and support in the [Community Support Forums](http://forum.openoffice.org/)
