Default saving a file

I'm using Word2010 in Windows10. I saved my files as ...docx, but When I want to open any, all I get is the same (red)thumbnail on the screen for all, and it seems the files were saved as pictures. what am I doing wrong? Is their any way to retrieve them as documents?



Thanking any of you in advance.

Word cannot save documents as pictures. They are still documents. What the issue is, is that the file association for the documents has been lost. Repairing Office should fix it. If not re-associate DOCX file format with your version of Office.
