Hi, I'm having trouble opening a few of my word documents, i think they may have become corrupted, and/or blocked, and was wondering if there was anyway to recover these word documents.

When I try to open one of the documents, the initial error message I receive reads;

"Word found unreadable content in [file name]. Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you trust the source of this document, click Yes."

Whether I click yes or no, I then get a new error message which reads;

"Word experienced an error trying to open the file"

(See screenshots attached)



Any help would be appreciated, thankyou.

I'm in the same boat. Were you able to recover your file?
