Lost Word I Don't Know What Happened

[Dorothy Kansas]

How can I get my Microsoft word back. What does it mean when you can't open word 6.0

[Berta]

Yow-

Dorothy-could any of it be in your Microsoft Picture Manager?

Hate to ask- is any of your stuff backed up on 3 1/2 s? or CDs?

I dont back up all of my stuff either-

My 3 1/2s fill two shelves now-

Do you have any alternative way to get into Word- I mean like on your desktop, or in the Start button-

dont know how you usually access it. Most programs have many ways in-

Is it possible the Microsoft on-line blue thing popped up on the right hand side of the page when you open Word-? meaning maybe you cant go to File and open anything?

If so I suggest you close the Microsoft window on the right, go to file and then click on the arrows on bottom to Expand and Open and the other stuff will pop up-

If you cannot get to Word at all-

This might sound nuts but sometimes my word docs I have in My pictures also-

I forget how they got there-

The docs would be in the Picture menu-

If you have no alternative way into Word-and none of this works-------

Dorothy:

If your computer came with a recovery disk it is not to hard to reinstall the program. If not find a teenager to help :-)

Have you tried just rebooting the darn thing, more than once BTW.

If that doesn't work, you should have either a recovery disc from the computer mfg. (Dell, IBM, etc.).

Or, you should have a Microsoft Word disc, in which case simply re-install the program.

I lost my disc and I tries system restore but it won't allow me to go back far enough.

[Guest jstacy]

It will only allow you to go back to the last date restored if you have previously restored.
