The originally-posted solution to stubborn "...also save changes to template?" message has changed a little bit in Windows 10, but is basically the same. So this problem has existed for at least three years!
Here's the Windows 10 version; your objective is to disable the bluetooth Add-In. (No, really!) You may want to disable a few others as well, to speed bootup of Word:
Open Word
Click the "File" tab
Click "Options"
Select "Add-Ins" from the left column
Select "COM Add-Ins" from the scrolling menu at the bottom of the popup window
Click on "Go"
This should open a window showing all your Word Add-Ins; unselect "Bluetooth" (and anything else you suspect is crap, if you're brave)
Click "OK", log out of Word, log into Word. You should be good to go.

Here is my solution:
Launch Word and click the Office button in the top left.
Click Word options at the bottom of that menu.
Click Add ins on the left.
Click the Go button for COM add ins
Remove the checkmark for Bluetooth **(see options below if not allowed)
Click OK and close out of word.
Launch Word and problem should be gone.
** If you cannot remove the checkmark, you need to launch Word as an Administrator. To do this, close out of Word, find the executable in Program files\Microsoft\Office\Winword.exe or Word.exe and right click. Choose run as Administrator.
