Hi there, I'm trying to download Microsoft Powerpoint to my Macbook Pro but it says that it's incompatible because my mac is on macOS 10.13 when to download Powerpoint I need to have macOS 10.15. There are no more updates available for my mac (I have High Sierra right now), would I need to download Monterey to get to 10.15?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13
Back up your data, check your applications for compatibility, and depending on which MacBook Pro model you have, click on Catalina, Big Sur, or Monterey. It needs to be at least a 2012 one to run the current version of PowerPoint.
Alternatively, use a product such as LibreOffice instead.

Notation - Mojave is the Last version to support 32 bit applications / extensions and Drivers. Catalina, Big Sur & Monterey supports only 64 bit and there is no workaround.
Suggest using Go64 to find 32 bit application before attempting the upGrade. Some or many of the Application already installed may required update or upGrades to 64 Bit Versions.
Are there any AntiVirus, Disk Cleaner, Optimizers, Un-installers, etc installed which should be removed as per Developers Instructions. They are useless, unneeded, cause havoc and interfere with the normal operation of the OS and may even Corrupt the OS requiring a Reinstallation
