EndNote X7 CWYW crashing Microsoft Office Word 2008

Hello,

I’m using a MacBook with OSX Snow Leopard and Microsoft Office Word 2008. I downloaded EndNote X7 from my institutional license and installed CWYW. After installing CWYW, MS Word keeps crashing all the time when i try to open recent documents (File > Open recent document). The problem occurs in every document. This problem didn’t exist before using CWYW. I’ve installed all updates. Do you have any idea what could cause the Word crash?

All of the other EndNote functions appear to be fine.

Thank you for your reply.

Dear Berthe, Thank you for contacting Thomson Reuters Technical Support. Sorry about that, can you please try the following steps?

Go to “Home > Library > Application Support > Microsoft > Office > User Templates”. To get to the Library folder in OS X 10.7 and later, Hold down the “Option” key on your Keyboard and go to the “Go” Menu and choose “Library”. 3. There is a “Normal” file in this folder, go ahead and drag it to the trash… 4. In Finder, go to “Home > Library > Preferences”, and drag the “com.microsoft.word.plist” file to the trash. 5. Reboot the Mac.
