Office 2013 Word Keeps Freezing (Not responding)

I just changed to a new laptop and transferred my programs. I did not have the "Not Responding". Throughout the thread, it states to do a few things and nothing works. I hope there is a fix soon.

To update this post, I reinstalled Office and it is still "Not Responding". It does this when I think it should be auto saving, after a few minutes of typing and after I return to typing after pausing.

**Disable hardware graphics acceleration"**does not work for me.

I have been using the office 2013 before Win 10. And for the last two years or so (after Win10）it has been

working fine until very recently (about 3 weeks ago). It keeps lagging when typing. It becomes much worse when I input Chinese. It freezes for 3-20   sec every 30 sec or so. very very distrupting. So I strongly suspect this

is related to Win 10 updating. I have tried several tips from this discussion. But so far none works.

worked for me:

● uncheck office animation + graphics acceleration

● open the docx in libre-office save as docx, in the confirmation popup, select "save as xml format" (it ll detach your template, you'll just need to attach it again in MSword. You'll also only need to rearrange the style pan under home tab)

⚠ first you have to identifie if the pb comes from MS word or from your .docx. To do that check if the docx is freezing on safe mode. If not MS word is ok (MS word isn't corrupted, but possible conflicts).

● If MS word is not ok, uninstalling (use the clean removal tool, to be shure to remove everything).

● in any case removed all plugin, (I deleted plugin registry keys if needed).

advice :

● for large docs: work in draft view (much quicker)

conclusion: in my case the problem did come from a style or some code attach to the files (maybe when copied past fro the web, or a buggy style feature from MS word). For large doc, it might be usefull to use libre office

You did not say what version of Office you were using before you installed Windows 10.  Did you actually do a fresh installation of Windows 10 or simply allow Windows 10 to update your operating system.  If you did the latter (update) your original Office software would remained on your computer, and may still be available on it as the upgrade to Windows 10 does NOT remove applications from your computer.

If you actually have Office (locally installed) rather than the subscription version provided through Office 365, then you can't get Office through your Microsoft Account. Instead, see https://products.office.com/en-us/download-back-up-restore-microsoft-office-products
