    Microsoft word not saving preferences


    My microsoft word will not save my preferences. For some reason it will not autocorrect the first letter in a sentence to a capital letter. I went into the options and Autocorrect settings and ensured that this item was selected and saved, yet it continues not to apply it, despite the option being selected every time I go into the settings. Additionally it defaults to saving everything to OneDrive, which I again tried to change in options and the changes are not being made, despite the options reflecting my selections. How do I fix this?

    :)

    Changing the default font on Microsoft Word 2010 has no effect on new pages

    Perform the following steps to set the default font for new Microsoft Word 2010 documents.

    1. Right click the "Normal" Style on the Home ribbon and click Modify.
    2. Change the font to Times New Roman, 12 (or whatever you would prefer).
    3. Select the "New documents based on this template" option.
    4. Click OK
    5. Close and reopen Microsoft Word to confirm.

    For Microsoft Excel, perform these steps:

    1. Select File menu, Options item.
    2. Select the General category.
    3. Change "When creating new workbooks, use this font"
    4. Click OK to confirm
    5. Restart Microsoft Excel as instructed.

    microsoft word 2003

    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.
