    Sorry to hear that my friend. Please try the following. These are the instructions I found online. If this was helpful please subscribe to my channel There isn't a single "reset" button for Microsoft Word on Mac, but you can reset its settings to default by deleting a specific file. Here's how: 1. Close Word: Make sure all Microsoft Word windows are closed. 2. Open Finder: Click the Finder icon on your dock. 3. Access Library folder: Click the "Go" menu in the menu bar. Hold the "Option" key on your keyboard. Select "Library" from the dropdown menu. 4. Navigate to the file: Go to the "Preferences" folder. Find the file named "com.microsoft.Word.plist". 5. Delete the file: Drag the "com.microsoft.Word.plist" file to the Trash. 6. Restart Word: Open Microsoft Word again. Word will create a new settings file with the default settings. Important note: This process will reset all Word settings to default, including custom toolbars, keyboard shortcuts, and formatting preferences. Make sure you back up any customizations you want to keep before proceeding.
