I am working on a huge report (250 pages) with many others, and we are using tracked changes. I am aware of how to use it and know many MS word shortcuts. Each time I do anything in the document it takes several seconds to react each time saying (not responding) until it catches up. I know this may also have something to do with the laptop but it is a good one and usually is fast enough. If anyone has any tips on how to help MS word help me edit this large document that would be super!

Thanks so much!

You could split the document into smaller portions and edit it that way - just be aware that some cross-references might not be able to find their bookmarks and will return error messages until you re-join the document, and that footnote & endnote numbers will likewise be off until you re-join the document.

What really slows down Track Changes is updating the reviewing pane.

So I suggest turning off the reviewing pane (whether horizontal or vertical).
