Malware may disrupt your Internet connection if your computer becomes infected, so try installing and running anti-virus software to check for infections. If your connection is completely cut off, you may need to download the software from a working PC and transfer it to the potentially infected computer with removable media, such as a CD, DVD, or flash drive. After the scan, restart your computer and test the connection by opening up your Web browser.
Ed Oswald is a freelance writer whose work appears on several technology sites as well as on Demand Studios. He has been writing since and graduated with a degree in Journalism from Temple University. I've had this computer 18 months and this has happened for a couple months. I've tried it on IE and Chrome and neither will work, so I always have to borrow my roommate's computer to download stuff.
Anyone know what is going on and how to fix it? I've cleared my cache and I believe most of my temporary internet files are deleted. I tried it, it didn't work. It looks like the problem is Word Starter won't open, but Word opens fine so I don't know why I need Word Starter to open these files with. Is it. If you are using Office Starter you should be able to use other alternatives. Since Starter has fewer features than the "real" Word, you should not find any inconvenient.
You could try using Wordpad included in Windows 7, supports. Check if any of those works well for you. If they don't we'll try to find another way to help you. EDIT: Another thing just occurred to me. If so try to uninstall Office Starter.
Also, it is preferable to save the file to a known location instead of telling the browser to open it, and then go to that location and double clicking the file.
I tried with Explorer 11 and that is a better experience than Chrome and Edge when it was working. I am not sure if this problem only started with the new Edge, that really is the same as Chrorme. Thanks Wilfred, I should have said that I had tried that, but I tried it again just in case but to know avail still no show for word docs at bottom of screen.
It as though they are somewhere below the task bar! As I said that a little bulb opened in my head! I have just hidden the task bar and there it is the last word document that I downloaded. Any idea how I can stop the document hiding behind the task bar! PS: Work around tapped. Thanks Wilfred, I have another problem! As I said in my last post the document was hiding behind the taskbar. I clicked on the three dots under options and chose ' chose always open files of this type'.
The problem I have now is that there does not appear to be any way to reverse this. I have had a look on the internet but cannot find a solution! Choose where you want to search below Search Search the Community. I am unable to download word documents from the internet using Microsoft Edge.
I have no problem doing this with Google Chrome! When I click on the document it appears to down load. I can see it bottom left of screen as usual, but it does not stick and it disappears as soon as I move my curser! This thread is locked.
