Windows 10: Word 2016 looks strange. How do I get back the one that got loaded on set up?

I created my own problem. Yesterday I set up a brand new laptop. Word 2016 got loaded perfectly. When I was looking my Installed Apps, I noticed several versions in different languages. I proceeded to uninstall those that I did not need anything other than English/US.My programs also showed the same several variations and tired to uninstall there as well. Oddly, all of the variations of the different languages still show in both my Installed Apps and in my programs. But now, my WORD looks very odd and different. What have I done? How can I get back the WORD2016 which got loaded yesterda

Jump Lists Not working for Word 2016 or Excel 2016


I have the same version.
If I don't have word pinned to my taskbar then I drop a word doc on the task bar it creates a shortcut to Word on my task bar with a pinned entry for that file - BUT when you click the file is says it doesn't exist then if you right click the file and click open it works just fine - so the problem gets even more strange *Smile





but if you right click text.docx and click open it works...





and the recent list never appears on the right click menu....

something somewhere is very confused - that includes me at the moment!

 

Searching for "Word 2016" gives unrecognised apps

Exactly, It looks its not recognizable shortcut. However, I do not know the path of it. It is under "Installed, apps". But what is the location of it ?

 

Jump Lists Not working for Word 2016 or Excel 2016


so jump lists via my taskbar and windows 10, I'm not having much joy :-(

I've just got a new desktop (Jan 2016) with windows 10 pre-loaded and I installed office 2010 - jump lists didn't work - so I thought I'll uninstall and install office 2016 64bit - jump lists still don't work arrggggg!

But they work for IE and notepad and file explorer but not for firefox or photoshop elements.

I've tried deleting the files from:
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\CustomDestinations
and rebooting but to no avail

any ideas anyone????

I really need jump lists working for Excel & Word.
