Thank you, Mike. Makes sense and realized that after posting.

Susan, got that message when in Firefox’s Password page, selecting the pw and clicking edit in upper right corner.

 

In Word,From More/Options, select Save in left pane. In the box next to Default File locations enter the Path where you want the Save as window to open to. Be sure to OK your changes.
The box for Save to Computer by default has the be checked in order for the Default local file location setting to work.

Hope this helps

Thank you PK Cano.  It was not in hidden icons.

I did a System Restore and that solved the problem.

Repair did not help. Am I better off downloading that repair tool rather than uninstalling it via Programs/Features?

For past c. 2 weeks, Office Updates has given me error message 0XC0000142. Microsoft technician suggested I uninstall then reinstall. Are you suggesting I don’t have to uninstall first?  Thanks for the clarification.

(Have Microsoft Office 365, personal)

Thanks for the reply.  I’ve been advised to reinstall due to problems with Office Update.  Don’t care which bit.  So, delete from Programs and Features before reinstalling?

Oops – apples and oranges.  Just realized Control plus + applies to the web…

Thank you much

Thank you both so much!  I realized yesterday that I hadn’t checked sub-documents and, so far, I’m in business.

I did notice that the first time I ran the macro that the ‘busy’ wheel stayed on screen for what seemed a long time, but after that running the macro went smoothly.

Appreciate all your help

 

Yet again I have been unsuccessful.  My settings in Trust Center for Macro Settings are “Disable All…with notification” and have turned off “Trust access…”

The path to my documents is in Trusted Locations

“Allow documents …” in Trusted Document

Thank you for your patience.

Finally, after repeated tries over 2 days, the path above was accepted.

I thank you again.

Thank you so very much.  I have a problem…I tried to add new location of

C:\Users\Nan\Documents and get message it has already been added to my trusted locations.

But when I try to run the macro, I still get the message.  Am embarrassed to say I can’t find path to Word to try to enter that in new location.  Ugh.

My sad saga continues. I unchecked startup, hid all MS services (Disable automatically became gray). Applied changes, restarted, Restore still not working (and wouldn’t let me Undo the most recent one, 3/30…) I reapplied my original settings in Selective (load system/startup checked; original boot unchecked don’t remember if I had it checked/unchecked on earlier attempts), tried Restore: couldn’t get past the 3/30 point. Said successfully restored to 3/30, even tho that wasn’t the date I had chosen. I haven’t been able to Undo that point – Either in Safe Mode or Normal.

Twice the system wouldn’t get beyond the screen saying Please wait…System Restore is initializing.” CPU light steady, the wheel on screen turning. Gave it c. 10 minutes, both times. Had to force shutdown.
At one point I got error ox80070057- (I do not have any partitions)

However, I thank you very, very much for all your suggestions and patience. I will go along without the Restore feature.

An aside: When I was in Services, I noticed Disk defragmenter was Stopped. I never did that and I was able to use it 2 days ago.

Thanks again, Mark

Forgive ignorance, but what will I be testing? System Restore?

I had been using Selective for years. After following your instructions, should I leave it at that or check Normal?

Again, thank you.
