For one reason or another, my Word suddenly decided to stay always on top of all other windows. This is terribly annoying. The odd thing is: of three documents I have open, two are on top of everything else, and one behaves normal.
I found one other mention of this behavior. I wonder whether this is a known bug and whether there's a workaround. Sometimes closing all windows helps, but later the behavior creeps back. Other Office products don't seem to show this behavior.
I closed both Outlook and Word and started the Task Manager. There was still a Winword.exe process listed under the Processes tab. I killed that duplicate process and restarted Outlook and Word and now Word was behaving correctly.
This problem happened to me once. Unless you want to download a shady program from a site filled with viruses this is the only way. I figured out that you can fix it with Task Manager. Don't worry you don't have to delete anything or get super techy. If you have something important on the window that is always on front, then you need to save it. Open Task Manager by pressing ctrl + alt +del if you didn't know how. Who doesn't though? End the window that is giving you trouble and re-open it. Go down to the start page or windows button at the bottom left hand screen and open notepad. Using Task Manager click the button to the left of Notepad. It should look like the greater than sign ( > ). One you click it there should be only one option (Untitled - Notepad). Right click it and then choose bring to front. This should fix your problem
I did this with whatever the newest update version for windows 10 was or is for me at 2:56AM Eastern time. 1/5/2018 . I'm 13 right now so anybody older than me who couldn't figure it out should feel ashamed. Just kidding. Forgot to mention that this works for all windows having this problem.
One key issue I find with this is that in many cases, the spacing is actually not happening, you are getting the results of a justification issue. If you go into Microsoft Word, then click on the Word item, top left, and then open preferences (this would normally be "options" on a Windows machine) go to Display or View. This area will show you items you can list as visible in word when you work. Check the box for "show spacing" and you will then notice a tiny pip like mark between words in your word doc.
I have received an xml file with a form that I am supposed to fill. The filename ends in .doc, so I assume it's supposed to be a word document. As far as I understand it was automatically generated by an online system and then sent to me - in case you are wondering, it's some legal form to be filled by foreigners intending to live and/or work in France.
