Delete and select problems in Word and Windows

[Dave Neve]

Hello

My delete button stopped working and I thought it was due to a program I had
installed which uses Word Macros

Finally, I discovered a way of getting it to work again but now I have a
problem with selecting text.

When I click on a word, several words are selectedd.

It is the same for files on my computer. I click on one and several are
selected.

The problem in Word and the more general problem in Windows are clearly
connected.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance

you start Word)
