    OK, so exactly what is it finding under those other "Search suggestions". Exactly What happens if you click 'Word 20" and "Word 2013"?

    There is something different about the way your system is setup. Your "Word 2016" icon is very different than mine. And when I search for Word 2016, that is all I get returned, none of these other "Search Suggestions"

    In the Alphabetical apps on the left banner, scroll down to the W's and click on Word. If you would like to create a shortcut tile on your desktop, drag Word to the desktop, If you just added Microsoft Office, Windows might not have had a chance to index the location. Once you search has indexed Word and the rest of the Office Suite, it will give the correct results
