    What is the exact error message that you see when trying to start Word? Can you start other Office programs?

    Thanks for the response Doug.  I have Office 16 and did not do a Custom install.  I followed the instructions in the link provided, it reloaded Office, but did not fix my problem.  The question remains "How do I find and run the 'Word Setup" program?

    What version of Office did you install?   If you did a Custom Install, did you include Word in the applications to be installed?

    Try repairing the Office installation as detailed in the Knowledge Base article at:

    The error message was evidently caused by an older version that had been uninstalled.
