While that recovery continues, WPS Office can keep local editing moving:

1. Download and install WPS Office.

2. Open Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or PDF files in the matching WPS app.

3. Save a local working copy until Microsoft access returns.

4. Move or sync files back through your normal workflow afterward.

If you need a practical local workspace in the meantime, try WPS Office.
