The Word Desktop app will show only the last 3 files which may not be the files which we wanted to.

Alternatively you can try referencing the file name like this "Create a document from test.pdf"
Let us know how it goes

1) It does not display your last three files...that's incorrect.
2) Yes, Word Online does work the way it's intended to, but most people don't want to use the Online app vs the Desktop app, so that's pointless
3) Referencing the file name works sporadically...half the time it errors out, even if you reference the file name exactly and it's in OneDrive.
None of what you said is correct or working, so not sure why this answer got marked "Correct"
