Default Word 2013 crashes

Windows 7, 64 bit

I am new to Word 2013 but not to Word itself. I can save a document with no problem, but when I "Save As" with a new name, the program crashes about every 10th time. And when that happens, all I get is blank page for the new save. Of course I still have the original, but as I am writing a book with 170 pages, I am a little frightened as to why this is happening.



This does not happen with the old Word, I think around 2008 vintage or so.

The Word 2013 is a University (education) version.

Have you tried repairing the Office installation (via Start > Windows Control Panel > Programs > Programs & Features > Microsoft Office (version) > Change)?

It's also possible the document you're working with has acquired some form of corruption. Corrupt documents can often be 'repaired' by inserting a new, empty, paragraph at the very end, copying everything except that new paragraph to a new document based on the same template (headers & footers may need to be copied separately), closing the old document and saving the new one over it. Similarly, corrupt tables can often be 'repaired' by converting the tables to text and back again or by saving the document in RTF format, closing the document then re-opening it and re-saving in the doc(x) format.
