    File Explorer Crashes with MS Word files

    MS Word and File Explorer

    I just started using Word 365. I go to File Explorer and open an existing Word doc and make no changes to it. I then close it out. In File Explorer, the listing shows it now has a new “Date modified” with the current date. If I open the doc again and
    check its properties, it has the “Last Modified” date as the last time I actually made a change to it. How do I stop this from happening? I need the files ordered in the actual “Date modified” not the last opened date.

    Moved from:

    Word

    /

    Windows 10

    /

    Office 365 Home
