The file is definitely there! After I get the "Windows cannot find" message,
I click "OK," then click on the file again and then that second time the file
opens. But this means it often takes me several minutes to get the file
open, and I shouldn't have to ask twice anyway.

But I DO have Norton Anti Virus! What then?

winword /r

and press enter. Test again.

Often when I open up a folder and click on a file, Word will hang for a
minute or two. The blue ring will go around and around. Then I get this
message:

"Windows cannot find 'C:\\Users\[My first name]\Documents\[File name].doc'
Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."

I just clicked on the file, so why can't Windows find it?
