It isn't the IT's fault. There is always a budget to work around.

At my work we replace 1/5th of the machines every year, so that no computer is older than 5 years. The last 2 replacements have been Win10, so a little more than half the machines are still Win7 but it's being phased out.

I don't know how big your company is but they better get on the ball, in a little less than 2 years Win7 will go the way of XP.

Try going to your boss and telling them that you need thousands of dollars to upgrade OS on all your computers, and that it won't net you any functionality whatsoever. You can barely get a manager to upgrade when their OS is no longer supported/updated.

Open the program twice. Its a design feature of Office 2010. It was built with each workbook being a window in that instance of Excel. So you have to open up more base instances to get double monitor functionality.

Also Windows 10 has a lot of bullshit bloatware and other issues with how Microsoft accounts are pushed. This is in an unjoined domain environment of course.
