Changing the defaults margins
I want to change the default margins so that they are 1 inch on each side. Per this link: https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/DesktopEditors/issues/759 I followed the instructions to edit the defaults by modifying the file. The problem is, the file is read only, and I am unable to save a file to the location with a different name.

Alternative to Windows spyware that can handle WORD and Excel?
I'd recommend OnlyOffice. Much better compatibility with Microsoft products than Libre/Open Office (no doc breaking, alignment issues, etc). It just seems to work and I love it.
