I am trying to use the Auto Summary for my Word document. I tried going to the Quick Access Bar clicked on More Commands then All Commands, I don't see the Auto Summary there. Any suggestions? Please and thank you

    The AutoSummary tool hasn't existed since Word 2010 was released. You'll find that news in https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/office-2010/cc179199(v=office.14) under the heading "What's Removed".

    If you do a web search for "word autosummary" you'll find a number of online tools, such as https://www.textcompactor.com/.

    Hi,

    Microsoft completely removed this feature a while ago.

    You can request that they add it back using the Feedback mechanism under File or UserVoice.

    I hope this information helps. Please let me know if you have any more questions or require further help.

    Regards
