In Word 2010, if I am editing a document with Track Changes on in Print Layout view, it will randomly switch to Draft view, opening the comments pane (instead of having comments bubbles in Print Layout view). This is an annoying bug since I prefer the arrangement of information in Print Layout view compared to Draft view. Is there a way to prevent this automatic switching while still having Track Changes on?

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
The question is, though, if you disable the Endnote plugin, does the problem you are having go away. If it does, the problem is with that Add-In and you need to address your questions to the people who produce it. They are the only ones who can give you a solution since their software is producing the problem!
This is a problem in the office. We are a team of 8 writers, all using Windows 7 (32-bit) running Word 2010 (Office professional 2010) on generic Dell Optiplex 755s. Admin rights are severely restricted and so no-one has been able to inadvertently install add-ins or 3rd party software - essentially unable to modify C:\ in anyway. The only additional software pre-installed in Endnote X4. Track changes is always on.
The switching from Page Outline with a vertical reviewing pane, to, Draft view with a horizontal viewing pane, happens incessantly. Can anyone confirm that if you disable EndNote plugins that this solves the problem? The issue here is that EndNote is essential for us, and may other user. If EndNote is the confirmed culprit, are there any work arounds?

Have you tried disabling the Add-In? Add-Ins often come with other programs and your IT people may or may not be aware of them.
Under the Developer tab you can click on the two Add-Ins groups to temporarily disable your Add-Ins. See http://addbalance.com/word/developertab.htm#Add-Ins
Disabling the Endnote add-in definitely does not resolve the issue.
How about any other Add-Ins? Several blue-tooth ones have lately been causing havoc for others.
