    "Microsoft Word cannot be opened. Try again or repair the product in the control panel."

    This is the message is keep getting & I can't seem to figure out in the control panel how to bring back my Microsoft Word

    Is there someone that can help. I have seen some suggestions saying to go to

    "Programs & Features"

    Change & Repair.

    These options are not available for my program, at least not in this order.

    I would appreciate anyone's assistance. I will triple pay it forward

    thank you,

    dena morgan

    In Windows 7, to see all options in Control Panel, you have to change the “View by” option (on the top right) to “Small icons.” Click Programs and Features, locate Office, select it, click Change, and then Repair.
