The first time my coworker mentioned it, we all started laughing, thinking that something must have been complicated to get to that point. But like many things, until it happens to you you don’t take it seriously. To solve it, you only have to follow the following steps:

1. Open Registry Editor. (Start > Run… and type “regedit”)

2. Inside Registry Editor navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Data

3. Right click on the “Data” folder and delete it

4. We opened Word and solved the problem.
