WORD will not function

Question

After an auto Microsoft download my WORD document file will not open. How do I fix this?

Answer 1

Which type of download are you referring to? An update for the operating system?

If restarting the PC doesn't help, try an Online Repair; see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/repair-an-office-application-7821d4b6-7c1d-4205-aa0e-a6b40c5bb88b .

Remember that you often have to reinstall Office as the final step in an Online Repair and, therefore, you should make sure that you can access your Microsoft account at https://account.microsoft.com/services and that your Office product is associated with it.
