I'm running Windows 7 x64 with Microsoft Office installed. Very recently (a few weeks ago) Microsoft Word has starting giving me some issues. It started when I opened a "protected document" and clicked where it says "enable editing" or something of that nature. It was a large document (>30 pages) so it seemed to freeze for a while (said "Not Responding") on the top but eventually unfroze. This happens all the time now whenever I have to click "enable editing." But also, when I close Word it will take forever to actually do so (about 45 seconds). Like I said, this is not normal and the problem started recently.
I will be taking Final Exams soon and have to use Word during the exam to type it up. Any ideas on what could be the issue and what the easiest fix is? I would prefer not to reinstall because by discs are at home not at school
