How to Run a Microsoft Office Repair on Mac

If your Microsoft Word application has become unresponsive on your Mac, don't worry – it's easy to fix the issue with a simple repair process. Here are the steps to follow:

Step 1: Disconnect Network Drive (if applicable)

Right-click on the network drive and select Disconnect Network Drive. If you're using a network drive to save your Word files, Microsoft Word may not respond if the network drive is not existing or offline. Try opening or saving a Word document again to see if the issue persists.

Step 2: Run the Repair Tool (MSI-based installation)

If you have an MSI-based installed Microsoft Office, follow these steps:

* Click on 'Change your installation' and select 'Repair'

* Click 'Continue' to start the repair process

* Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the repair

Step 3: Run the Repair Tool (Click-to-run installation)

If you have a click-to-run installation of Microsoft Office, follow these steps:

* Right-click on Microsoft Word and select 'Change'

* Select 'How would you like to repair your Office Programs' window

* Click 'Continue' to start the repair process

* Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the repair

Step 4: Uninstall and Reinstall (as a last resort)

If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you may need to uninstall and reinstall Microsoft Office. However, this should be done as a last resort, as it will delete all your settings and data.

By following these simple steps, you should be able to fix the 'Microsoft Word is not responding' error on your Mac and get back to work in no time.
