Cursor jumps to the end of the document when deleting a line in Word and have Track Changes enabled (Word for Windows)

I work with a document some others has created. In the document Enter has been jused quite many times to create/start a new line. When I use Backspace or Delete to remove the line and tie the sentencens together and then add a space between the sentences, then the cursor jumps all the way to the end of the document. 

When a turn off Track Changes, then it does not happen. I would assume this to be an error/flaw i MS Word and wonder if it is a workaround for the issue or if it would be fixed. I need to have Track Changes enabled.

    MS will need to address this. I work with big business teams - business teams around the world use MS Word to develop all sorts of critical documents. This glitch is driving me and my clients crazy. Time = Money.

    Bill Gates has got nothing to do with Microsoft any more. The CEO (since 2014) is Satya Nadella.
