MS Word suddenly not working

[Guest]

All of sudden, sometime within the last few days, Microsoft Word has stopped
working. Whenever I try to open a Word document (or just Word) a window
opens that
says "Microsoft Word for Windows has encountered a problem and needs to
close.
We are sorry for the inconvenience." None of my documents, which so recently
were able to open, can open any longer.


I have restarted my computer multiple times and also attempted to open word
documents on a flash drive that I know to contain sound documents. Still
Word won't
work. I can open these documents if I right click and select open with
notepad.
