Microsoft Word

Post by susanter »

My odt files appear to have been ' hijacked' by Microsoft Word meaning that they open in Word and I'm not able to edit. Microsoft want me to purchase their package and until I do they have limited my use. Sorry I'm not techy so not sure if this makes sense. Any thoughts appreciated. Thankyou

Hi and welcome to the forum!

See: [Tutorial] Setting the default program for MS Office formats.
You need to change the default application to open the file.

Please add [Solved] at the beginning of the title in your first post (top of the topic) with the edit button if your issue has been fixed.
