Why do Word & PowerPoint crash seconds after opening any file? I have a problem with Office 365 on my new MacBook Air (2022 - OS 13.4 (22F66) - Chip Apple M2). Outlook and Teams work, but Word and PowerPoint crash a few seconds after I try to open any file. In the beginning, everything was working, then suddenly this problem appeared. I run a check with EtreCheck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

How to fix the "Microsoft Word Can't be Opened" error on Mac I have been using Microsoft word fine up until a few days ago and now I keep getting this message: The application “Microsoft Word” can’t be opened. I have tried updating the app itself and it says it's up to date and I even updated (OS 14.4.1) and restarted the laptop but nothing has changed and it still won't open. All other 'office' apps are working fine for some reason it's just word. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

WORD microsoft is lagging Mac mini M1 16GB RAM Working on Word is visible large lags preventing work - Mac Mini M1. Working on the same file on the MacBook Pro 8GB RAM has no problems. I noticed this: I have Adobe subscription and acronis installed on Mac Mini; Mac Book Pro does not have these programs - the question is whether these programs can cause MAC Mini M1 to be laughed.
