Endnote/Footnote Jumping Broken
Operating Word 16.96.1 on Mac Sequoia 15.4.1
There was an update for Word a week or two ago, and since then, my endnote functionality has been broken. When you double-click on endnote numbers, it should jump to the corresponding note. This is not working. (For footnotes either.) If the cursor is located at the endnote number, I can click "Show Notes" in the header, and it will jump, but that takes too much time.
I have restarted the computer, uninstalled and reinstalled Word, opened Word in safe mode, moved files from the library to the desktop (per support instructions)... nothing has fixed it. I have updated the computer software since this happened, and completed another Word update, but otherwise, I haven't installed any other apps or programs.
I am a professional editor, so I spend all day in Word checking endnotes, and I lose so much time not having the jump functionality. Any help would be appreciated!

word old trouble try this trick: 1. press Ctrl + Shift + G to force the update of the domain code 2. save the document as .docx and restart Word. if it does not work 80% of the template file pumping the wind, a new blank document to re-layout it.
