Locate WINWORD.exe and right-click on it.

Select Properties.

Go to the Compatibility Tab.

Unselect the checkbox “Run this program in compatibility mode for:”

Click Apply then OK.

Troubleshoot

Go to your File Explorer and navigate to:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\root\office16

Locate WINWORD.exe and right-click on it.

Select Properties.

Go to the Compatibility Tab 

Click Run Compatibility Troubleshoot.
