Yes, TCs = Track Changes LOL sorry. I've been using it since I was forced to switch to Word from WordPerfect, if you know what that was. I don't know how old you are LOL

I hated switching, but I fell in love with TCs which WordPerfect didn't have & no one was using it except for me - sigh

LOL, I wouldn't switch to 11 if you paid me. I didn't want to switch to 10, but an online friend said he thinks the reason I was having so many computer issues is b/c MS was causing them so I would switch.

I now have DIFFERENT issues. SMH.

What's up with 11?

I'm trying to get my desktop set up & then I'll be back to 7 again.

I looked at my profile & there was nothing picked in the dropdown for the version of Word (strange). I changed it to 2013. Where did it say 2010? That's what I have on my desktop.

Thanks for all of your help.

You are welcome.
As to profile, look at your original post in this thread.

Windows 7 is getting a bit creaky with age and no updates. I doubt that MS is causing issues with Windows 7, but they are not fixing them either since it is out of support.

IMO Windows 11 is still in late beta-test stage. I have it on one laptop but have refused it on my main one. Two things that make it a non-starter for me is that you cannot reposition the TaskBar and it will not let you easily open a Word template for editing from Windows. When you choose Open from the right-click menu, it does not open, it gives a new document.

Thanks for the warning.

I hope the MS repair feature works.

I appreciate all of you help.
