I worked with another user yesterday who had been encountering this same behavior. After checking the “COM Add-ins” window in Word 2010, we removed a “Send to Bluetooth” add-in. Once this mentioned add-in was removed, Word no longer prompted about changes to the Normal template and would no longer crash. I would suggest checking your Word installation for other third party add-in files-
1. Open a Word document.
2, In Word, click “File>Options”.
3. Go to the “Add-ins” tab.
4. Leave the “Manage” drop down set to “COM Add-ins” and press “Go”.
Take note of what is listed here, whether the add-in is checked or not, and let me know what you find.
Best Regards,
