WTF is winword? Maybe you should try installing open office (it's free) if you don't want to buy MS Office.
 
WTF is winword?
Actually it is M$ office word, if you have office and are using Windows, type winword in the run dialog box and you will see
 
Use the help function in word. If you look for equation editor you should get a search result something like "install or remove components" which details how to add equation editor.
 
Thank you, I did as what you said but I still haven't found it in the list yet.
