Frequently, users have difficulties opening files. The files can be opened from within Word, but when clicked from Windows, they won’t open.
The problem isn’t with Word. This is most likely a problem with file associations. Windows’ file associations frequently get changed inadvertently. Fortunately, it can be remedied very easily.
In Windows XP, follow these steps:
1. Right click a Word file
