Windows 10: Word program missing from computer

Turned on computer to open a word document and the message WINWORD.EXE has been changed or moved appears despite the app not being touched. Files have been changed to word pad files, but the rest of my MS office 2016 package is working as normal. I have already repaired the office application as suggested from another question, i cannot re-download word without having to pay for the app again.

:)

 

Why did the startup window get cleared?

I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.
