Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about WPS Office; open a topic page for more depth.
What kind of software is WPS?
WPS Office is a cross-platform office suite developed by China-based Kingsoft. It combines four tools, Writer (compatible with Word), Spreadsheets (compatible with Excel), Presentation (compatible with PowerPoint) and PDF, and is positioned as a free alternative to Microsoft Office, with high compatibility with the .docx, .xlsx and .pptx formats. It supports Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS across the board, and the core features of the personal edition are free forever. Chinese users abroad are advised to download a clean international edition from this site, wpsofficepro.com.
What exactly is WPS Office used for?
WPS Office is used to handle everyday office files: writing documents (Writer, the equivalent of Word), building spreadsheets (Spreadsheets, the equivalent of Excel), making slides (Presentation, the equivalent of PowerPoint), and reading and editing PDFs. It is a cross-platform suite from Kingsoft and a free alternative to Microsoft Office, highly compatible with .docx, .xlsx and .pptx, and usable on Windows, Mac, Linux and mobile. The four core modules are free forever for individuals, making it a great fit for students and ordinary home use.
Is WPS the same thing as Microsoft Office?
They are not from the same company, but they serve almost the same purpose. WPS Office is an office suite made by Kingsoft and positioned as a free alternative to Microsoft Office. It likewise offers documents, spreadsheets, slides and PDF, with a similar interface and workflow, and it is highly compatible with Microsoft .docx, .xlsx and .pptx formats, so exchanging files is mostly trouble-free. The biggest difference is that the WPS personal core features are free forever, while Microsoft Office usually requires payment. Chinese users abroad who want a clean experience are advised to use the WPS international edition (from this site, wpsofficepro.com).
Can WPS Office open Word, Excel and PowerPoint files?
Yes. WPS Office is highly compatible with Microsoft formats and can open, edit and save .docx (Word), .xlsx (Excel) and .pptx (PowerPoint) directly, so exchanged files rarely lose their formatting. Its Writer, Spreadsheets and Presentation correspond to Word, Excel and PowerPoint respectively, and the free version already does all of this, with the option to save files as PDF as well. For sending and receiving Microsoft format files every day, WPS works perfectly.
Is WPS safe? Can I install it with confidence?
WPS downloaded from official channels is safe, genuine software that you can install with confidence. The personal edition is free forever, and Chinese users abroad should download it from this site: wpsofficepro.com. The safety red line is this: never download from unknown third-party sites or so-called cracked versions. Security firms have exposed cracked Office and WPS packages that carried the XMRig mining trojan, installed quietly in the background while disguised as system programs. Since the official version is free, there is simply no reason to use a cracked one.
Is WPS a virus? What should I do if my antivirus keeps warning me?
The official genuine WPS is not a virus. If your antivirus keeps warning, first check the source: only download from this site (wpsofficepro.com) or an official store. If you installed a copy from a third-party site or a cracked version, take the warning seriously, because cracked Office and WPS have been exposed for carrying the XMRig mining trojan, so delete it and reinstall the official version immediately. When the official version is flagged by mistake, you can follow official guidance to add WPS to your antivirus allowlist before using it.
Will WPS steal my data?
The genuine WPS installed from official channels is compliant commercial office software. Under normal use it works on your files and is not designed to steal data; the real data risk comes mainly from third-party cracked versions, which have been exposed for carrying mining trojans and quietly installing programs in the background. To protect yourself: download only from the official domain, use the international edition (cleaner, without screens full of promotions), and if you are uneasy about the cloud, simply do not sign in and edit only on your local machine. The full text of the official WPS privacy terms is not covered in this material, so we suggest you review and confirm it yourself.
Will WPS secretly upload my files to the cloud?
Cloud sync does not happen in secret; it is enabled only after you sign in. When you sign in with the same account, files are encrypted and stored in the WPS cloud for cross-device sync, with 1GB free. If you do not want to upload, simply do not sign in and edit only locally, or leave document cloud sync turned off in the settings. One thing to note is the cloud-side policy: once 1GB is full you can no longer upload, and cloud files are deleted after 180 consecutive days without signing in. Chinese users abroad get a cleaner experience with the international edition.
Is WPS free or do I have to pay?
The four core modules of WPS Office, namely Writer, Spreadsheets, Presentation and PDF, are free forever for individuals. You can open, edit and save Word, Excel and PowerPoint files, with 1GB of cloud storage included, which is more than enough for ordinary home users and students. Only some advanced features cost money, such as full PDF editing, PDF to Word conversion, OCR text recognition, batch conversion, online templates and AI features. In other words, basic office work requires no payment at all, and you would only consider upgrading to a membership when you need to remove ads or use advanced PDF and AI features.
Can the free version of WPS be used indefinitely? Will it start charging after a while?
Yes, you can keep using it for free indefinitely. In the WPS personal edition, documents, spreadsheets, slides and basic PDF reading and annotation are free forever; this is not a time-limited trial, and you will not be forced to pay after a while. Two things to keep in mind: first, the free version has upgrade pop-ups and ads, and second, if you mistakenly tap a free trial (such as a 3 day plan) and link auto-renewal, you will be charged the full annual fee automatically when it expires. As long as you do not subscribe to a paid plan, the free core features remain available indefinitely.
Which one is the official WPS website? How can I make sure it is not a fake site?
Looking for the official domain is the safest approach. This site uses the domain wpsofficepro.com; on mobile, download only from official stores: Google Play for Android and the App Store for iOS. Do not download from any site other than this one, or any site that advertises a cracked or ad-free version, to avoid getting infected by a trojan.
Where should I download the genuine WPS to be safe?
For the desktop version, download from this site: wpsofficepro.com. On mobile, trust only the versions listed in the stores: Google Play for Android and the App Store for iOS. WPS itself is free, so there is no reason whatsoever to use a third-party site or a cracked version; security firms have already exposed hackers slipping mining trojans into cracked versions, running quietly in the background while disguised as system programs.
Is the WPS downloaded in Taiwan genuine? Could a backdoor be planted in it?
As long as you download from this site it is genuine, with no backdoor concerns. In Taiwan you can use this site, wpsofficepro.com (in partnership with Besta; this site also offers the 2016 and 2019 Traditional Chinese standalone editions). What does get trojans planted in it is unknown third-party sites or cracked versions; security firms have already exposed cracked versions carrying mining trojans. Look for the official domain and you need not worry about backdoors.
Is WPS safe to use in Hong Kong? Will my data be sent back to mainland China?
WPS downloaded from official channels is not malware, but WPS is developed by China-based Kingsoft, and data privacy is governed by its cloud policy. The clean choice for Chinese users abroad is the Hong Kong edition: since 2017 Kingsoft has offered personal and family editions for Hong Kong, with no annual fee forever, in Traditional Chinese, confirmed by several Hong Kong media outlets as free and ad-free, available at wpsofficepro.com. If you handle sensitive data, we suggest turning off cloud sync and using local storage instead, to keep files from uploading automatically. The final interpretation of the cloud policy needs to be confirmed through hands-on testing.
Can a Singapore company use WPS to handle confidential documents?
WPS is developed by China-based Kingsoft, and once you sign in, files are encrypted and synced to the WPS cloud, so before handling confidential documents you should first assess compliance and the cloud policy. In practice: do not sign in, turn off document cloud sync and use purely local storage, which greatly reduces the risk of outward transmission; if your company has compliance requirements, IT and legal should review the WPS data handling terms first. Whether it meets your company confidentiality level needs to be confirmed through hands-on testing and internal review, and this material does not provide an enterprise compliance conclusion.
Is there an official Traditional Chinese version of WPS to download in Malaysia?
Yes. The cleanest Traditional Chinese choice is the Hong Kong edition, which Kingsoft offers for Hong Kong with no annual fee forever, in Traditional Chinese and ad-free, available at wpsofficepro.com and accessible to Chinese users abroad. You can also use the Traditional Chinese page on this site. Note that the international edition has no Chinese interface by default and requires you to install a Chinese language pack manually; the mainland edition includes Simplified Chinese but has more ads. On mobile, just search for WPS Office on Google Play.
Does WPS have a lot of ads? Will pop-ups keep appearing?
It depends on the edition. The mainland edition has the built-in Docer store and shows more ads and promotions, including pushes when you open files; the international edition (this site, wpsofficepro.com) is relatively clean and does not push the Docer store. The cleanest is the Hong Kong edition (this site), confirmed by Hong Kong media as free and ad-free. Still, in actual use you may run into sign-in promotions or pop-ups for paid features. For fewer ads, users abroad should choose the international or Hong Kong edition first.
Can the ads in the free version of WPS be turned off?
Ads are reduced mainly by choosing the right edition rather than flipping a single switch to turn everything off. Users abroad are advised to switch to the international edition (this site, wpsofficepro.com) or the Hong Kong edition (this site); the Hong Kong edition is confirmed by Hong Kong media as free and ad-free, and much cleaner than the mainland edition. To remove ads completely, the paid Pro and Premium plans include an ad-removal benefit. Do not download an ad-free cracked version just to get rid of ads, as such files carry the risk of being bundled with trojans.
Which country is the company behind WPS from?
WPS Office is developed by China-based Kingsoft. It is a cross-platform office suite that combines Writer (Word compatible), Spreadsheets, Presentation and PDF features, positioned as a free alternative to Microsoft Office, with high compatibility with the .docx, .xlsx and .pptx formats. It offers both an international edition for overseas users and an edition for the mainland, while Hong Kong and Taiwan each have their own local official portals, and Chinese users abroad can download it from this site, wpsofficepro.com.
Can WPS completely replace Microsoft Office?
For most personal and home scenarios it can. WPS is highly compatible with the .docx, .xlsx and .pptx formats and can open, edit and save Word, Excel and PowerPoint files, with an interface close to Office, and it is widely regarded as a free alternative to Microsoft Office. It is well suited to everyday documents, spreadsheets, slides and basic PDF tasks. However, if your work relies heavily on advanced Office macros, specific collaboration or proprietary features, we suggest testing compatibility with the free version first before deciding, and this part needs to be confirmed through hands-on testing.
