Blank Documents

Hello Wright,

Thank you for writing to us with the information.

At this point, I suggest you to check if you have any system restore point set prior to the issue.

To check if there is any Restore Point already created, follow the below steps.

• 
  Press Windows key + X, select System.
  
• 
  In the left pane, click on System Protection.
  
• 
  Select the option to system restore > next. It will show all restore points already created.
  

If System Restore point exists, try to revert to an earlier point wherein you can recover the file you are referring to.

Let us know the results.

 

Choosing blank Word document opens two Word sessions

Yes, same here. Although I had to turn the Start screen back on, I have it turned off by default.

With the Start screen turned off, it doesn't happen
File menu > Options > General > Start up options > untick Show the Start screen etc
(that Start screen annoys the bejeebers out of me ! )

With this off, Word just auto opens with a blank page for every session, single or multiple sessions.

 

Choosing blank Word document opens two Word sessions

I'm using Office Pro 2019 Retail build 2002 (12527.20278).

When one Word session is already open (be it a blank or saved document) and I choose to open another new blank Word session by clicking on the Office Word app (in Start menu) and then choosing "Blank document", it opens two extra blank Word sessions instead of one. So I'll be having 3 Word sessions total.

This only happens when a Word session is already open and I open another one through the Office Word app.

Anyone else noticing this?
