    Microsoft Word Starter 2010 cannot be opened


    Hello . As it says above, overnight, following installation of a system update, I cannot now open any of my documents. When I try to do this on "recent files" or my documents folder, a message in a panel flashes up saying that Microsoft Word Starter 2010 cannot be opened. I can't work out how to repair this - as the message instructs - via the Control Oanel, and my online disussion with the Microsoft "helpline" has got me nowhere.

    If others have experienced this problem and have any suggestions to resolve it, I'd be very grateful.

    :)

    That was preinstalled by the computer manufacturer.

    1. Click Start (or Start > Run in Windows XP).
    2. Type appwiz.cpl, and then press Enter.

      Warning Do not remove Microsoft Office 2010from the list of installed programs. You will need this to reinstall Microsoft Office Starter 2010.

    Word Starter 2010 disappeared

    I volunteer at the nearby retirement community with computers assistance. One of the residents lost her Microsoft Word 2010 Starter. Her computer originally came with Windows 7, but we updated it to Windows 10. The Word Starter worked fine in Windows
    10 for 2 years until mid- January 2018 when it stopped working. I checked in Apps and Features and "Microsoft Office Starter 2010 - English" is still listed. I attempted to do a "repair", but when I clicked on "modify" (to get to repair), nothing happened.

    Anyway to get Word starter going again?

    Thx,
