  1. Microsoft Word not responding


    Microsoft word tells me it is not responding, then when I wait for the program to close it just freezes for hours. I used to get regular updates from Microsoft but haven't for a very long time. Could this be the issue? It is very scary as I am an editor and although I save intermittently I have lost a lot of work both times this has happened. It happened once last weekend and then today, does this mean I need to re-install Word and if so how do I do that please? It is Microsoft Home and Student 2013.

    :)

    Is it just one file, or all your word files?

    With the exception of Outlook, I have yet to find a reason to stop using Office 2000, 2003, and 2007. They open all the latest files just fine, and they work just fine.
