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.

    Thank you -- I've now used the feedback form. I am going to check to see if the professional org I belong to (CIEP) has raised it with MS. I can see some familiar names in this thread, and I wonder if we can amplify our voices by speaking as one.

    To add to what Suzanne has said, two "variations" on the bug have been reported.

    It's very important that people go to File on their Word Ribbon, then Feedback, and leave feedback. They get enough feedback they will take notice.

    Yeah, I think we all have been doing that. Over and over again. Along with complaining about the FIND function that doesn't always work >:-(
