Unhappy I am unable to open documents in Word through their file location, only via Word itself (Word 2013)


Whenever I attempt to open a document through its file location I receive a pop up asking me what program I would like to use to open the document (as indicated in attached file ugh1.PNG). Word isn't an option present on the "recommended" or "other" program lists. I am able to find Word through the browse function, but whenever I attempt to select or open the program the window closes out and my selection is not recorded. It seems that it is unable to recognize Word as a viable program for opening the documents. (The documents were created using this Word program.) However, if I open Word I am still able to select and edit the files through there (as indicated in ugh2.PNG). This isn't really much more than a mild inconvenience, but it is getting irritating and if anyone knows how to resolve it I would be extremely extremely obliged
