    Documents written and saved in Word now open in Apache


    Suddenly all my documents that have been written and saved in Microsoft Word don't open in Word but in something called Apache. I desperately need for them to open in Word as they always have but I can't seem to find any way to do this and I have no idea what happened. I need help.

    :)

    opening word documents

    My laptop will not open current saved documents in word on desktop. A window opens and goes to reconfigure, then asks if I want to reboot. After reboot the same thing happens when I try to open a word document. This happens with all of word documents on
    desktop. However, word documents open with no problem through my email.

    I thought I had Windows 10 but on my programs list I also see Windows 2016.

    Any ideas?

    Opening Word documents

    Hi MPHowe

    Can you please provide a bit more detail on your question . . .

    1

    Do you get an error when trying to open Word documents, and if so, is that for all documents and what is printed on that error?

    2

    Can you open Word form its application icon, and if so, if you go to File - Open, can you open a Word document form there, rather than double clicking a Word document?

    3

    As an initial step, follow these steps to perform a full repair of your Office installation . . .

    Open Control Panel - Programs and Features

    Click Microsoft Office in the list of installed applications

    At the top, click 'Change'

    On the resulting dialog, click 'Repair' - choose the Online Repair, it is a comprehensive fix

    That should fix any issues with your Office Installation . . .

    NOTE: Please be advised, if you are running Office 2013 or earlier, before attempting a repair, have your Microsoft Office Product Key at hand, Office may need to be re-activated in some cases
