    Task view no longer opens word docs in full version


    After an update yesterday, when I go to Task View and open a recent document it no longer opens in the full version of Word. I now have to go to the file folder to get it open in the full version. How do I get Task View to revert to open Word files as I last used them in the full version?

    :)

    Opening a Word doc in a Second Desktop from Explorer

    Thank you so much for your reply!

    To clarify, the problem is that whenever I try to open another word doc in file explorer in a second desktop it goes back to the desktop in which there already is a word doc open and opens the requested doc there, instead of in the second desktop.

    I have tried the repair and it did not help. Any other suggestions?

    Word has gone after reinstalling Windows 10 and word docs won't open

    Hi Nathaniel

    Thanks for the suggestions. Yes I did check for updates and updated all that was availbale. Office/Word did not appear.

    There was no error message when I tried to open my docs (which showed as blanks at first) but word pad was the only program on offer when I tried to open my word docs but this didn't work either (just symbols appeared).

    I checked the article you suggested. It offered me Office AT $148.

    As a "getaround" I downloaded Libre Office from Linux and it opens my word docs just fine, but this does not solve my problem of course.

    Any other suggestions would be welome.
