How do I access a blank word document

Hi! Let me help you with this issue.

Do you have a Word Application installed?

If yes, click the search box or Start Menu, then type in "Word" and open the Word app. It should open a blank Word document.

To start a blank Word document, first choose whether to use Word on the web or the Word desktop app.

If using Word for the web (online):

1. Go to Microsoft365.com and sign in with the Microsoft account.
2. Select Word to open Word for the web.
3. On the start page, select Create blank document to open a new empty document and start typing.

If using Word for Windows (desktop app):

1. On the Windows taskbar, search for Word and open it.
2. On the Word Home or start page, select Blank document to open a new empty document.
3. To save it, select File > Save As, give the document a name, and choose where to save it.

If Word is not installed on the computer, sign in to Microsoft365.com, select Install and more > Install Microsoft 365 apps, then run OfficeSetup.exe and follow the instructions. After installation, search for Word on the Windows taskbar and follow the steps above.
