Default Let me use the backspace key!!

A recent update occured in Microsoft word. I now cannot use the backspace
key to delete a highlighted section. Also, instead of overwriting
highlighted text, the program merely inserts new text as though I had not
highlighted in the first place. I find these changes to be extremely
frustrating as the delete key barely works on my computer and when I am
editing a thought, I like to be able to highlight the section and completely
write over it with my new thought. There is a lot more editing to be done
the new way. The new way, I now have to pick through my text and figure out
where it begins and where it ends. This is very frustrating and I would like
to see these "new features" kicked to the gigantic circular file in the
corner of my Office.
