I have Microsoft Works installed which has Word included. I don't use if often but a few days ago I needed to use a Word template from the Works launcher. It gave me an error to say Word wasn't installed properly.
I found the disc and reinstalled Word, everything worked perfectly until I rebooted after installing updates. Now when I use the template it says Winword.exe can't be found.
I've reinstalled Word again and almost instantly got a notification that there are updates for Office, no mention of Word, just Office and other parts of Office that I don't have like Publisher.
Why do the updates remove Word? It's a legal copy, I have the serial number on the back of the disc that I purchased a few years ago.
