Instead of blaming the software, which many millions of users are able to use without such dramas, you'd do better to think in terms of why your Office installation isn't behaving. For example, maybe the problem is because something or someone has damaged
it. Have you tried repairing the Office installation (via Programs & Features > Microsoft Office > Change in the Windows Control Panel)? What other fixes have you tried?
