This is a known issue with some versions of Word. I don't think it has ever been permanently fixed by Microsoft. Newer versions are more robust.

If you are seeing the issue with the document preview in the File > Open > Browse dialog box in Word, check if you can preview from File Explorer, with Word closed, instead.
