Just to clarify, when you have opened in Safe Mode, Word opens normally and
closes again normally to a blank document? Are you able to save the blank
document and close Word?

:
: Winword /a opens Word normally, just like it does when

: existing document within Word or outside it, or opening a
: new document within Word, that the error message appears.
