Call me a shill, but that's why I always used Google Docs when I was in school. Things are instantly saved and I can easily access them on other devices. It was also always how we collaborated on group projects with the ability of multiple people to simultaneously edit power points in a collaborative project.

I don't have use for word processing anymore, but I used Google Docs from like 2012-2020.

Definitely helped a ton because my laptop in grad school would randomly blue screen a lot for no discernible reason. Did that when it was new too and Dell support was no help. I have a suspicion that the processor was actually faulty on a hardware level straight from the factory...as it would have problems both in Windows AND Linux that were "fixed" by dramatically underclocking the CPU. All hardware stress tests would always pass. :/

Anyway, sorry for the random tangent lol.
