Hello,

I want to save Word documents on Finder, but when I try to do so, the "save as" icon is grayed out.
Therefore, I am unable to save any documents in my session.
Note that other sessions on the PC work normally.

Thank you in advance.

    Are there other applications that allow recording in the same session? If so, if this is indeed a problem limited to Word and it is a recent version (>= 2016), you can try, after quitting Word, to go to the folder ~/Library/Containers to delete the folder com.microsoft.Word that is there.

    Note: in the latest versions of macOS (Big Sur or Monterey), this folder is displayed with the name "Microsoft Word":

    If needed, don't hesitate to provide more details about the context: Office version, update level, macOS version, possibility of simple saving of an existing document,...
