Install Application Software

Application software, or simply applications, are often called

productivity programs or end-user programs because they enable the
user to complete tasks such as creating documents, spreadsheets, databases,
and publications, doing online research, sending email, designing graphics,
running businesses, and even playing games. Application software is specific to
the task it is designed for and can be as simple as a calculator application or
as complex as a word processing application. When you begin creating a
document, the word processing software has already set the margins, font
style and size, and the line spacing for you. But you can change these
settings, and you have many more formatting options available. For example,
the word processor application makes it easy to add color, headings, and
pictures or delete, copy, move, and change the document's appearance to suit
your needs. Microsoft Word is a popular word-processing application that is
included in the software suite of applications called Microsoft Office.
