I have Microsoft Windows XP and have lost the word document program and cannot find it. I have looked in:?

I'm not very sure what you mean but i think the word document program you meant is microsoft word. Is it correct?

you said you can view the previously saved document but can't find the program that help you make the document. My best guess is the program is still there but the icon is disappeared somehow

Try to look for it in the Start Menu. If you use Vista, just type the name of the program in the search bar in the start menu.

If you use XP, look in the menu first, if you can't find it then do search by holding down the winkey (the funny key with a flag on it) and the 'F' key, then type in the program and hit search. Have a look in the 'Program Files' too

You can always opt for OpenOffice. It's a free alternative to MS Office

It's a lot easier to accidentally delete the Microsoft Word desktop link than it is to accidentally uninstall Word itself. Try this:

In Windows Explorer, find a document and try to open it. If you can, Word is still on your machine and all you have to do is reestablish a desktop link for it. Here's how:

1. In Windows Explorer (aka My Computer), navigate to

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office (for Office 2000)

or

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10 (for Office 2002 (XP))

or

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11 (for Office 2003)

or

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12 (for Office 2007)

2. Right-click on Winword.exe and select Create Shortcut. A pop-up will ask you if you want to create it on the desktop. Click Yes.

Hope that helps.

there is an extremely reachable application from Microsoft talked approximately as "TweakUI" which would be downloaded. part of that software lists a call for "Logon", which permits you to start the laptop and circulate on on your account with out seeing the countless logon possibilities. that's available on the fewer than hyperlink, the place you could % the version on your particular version of residing house windows.

Did you loose "WORD" or the Icon (shortcut)? Search your program file for winword.exe, if you find it you still have the program. You can then right click on it and place a shortcut in your desired location. Exact proceedure depends on your version of windows.

If you are referring to the entire MS Word software then you can look in this directoy
