In Word, how to make the current line that I'm typing in it appears in all cases?
I cannot reproduce this. Is it for all documents?
I notice you have a very different Home tab.
If you start Word in safe mode, is this still a problem?
Open Office apps in safe mode on a Windows PC - Microsoft Office
This is a diagnostic step, not a way to use Word.
Off-topic: The appearance of your Home tab tells me it is unlikely you are using Styles for your formatting. Neglecting styles is a huge mistake if you want to get the most out of Word. It can make things a lot harder.
Hi mister Charles,
Thank you so much for your reply, I started Word in safe mode, and this problem does not exist. Then I discovered that this problem happens because of settings that I set in the past, I have the position of the font is lowered by 18 pt, and this helped me when I type in Arabic language it shows the diacritics with enough space between lines. Note that for me I found that if I type with 14 pt or 16 pt font size then putting Line spacing for paragraph in multiple and at 1.25, also in the other hand putting the font in lowered with 18 pt this makes the spacing between lines in the paragraph very perfect when I put diacritics in the Arabic text.
Other thing, I use styles and styles are very helpful. Thank you so much for the advice.
Last thing, although this problem happens because I lowered the font by 18 pt when I use 14 pt font size or 16 pt font size, but I hope to find a solution for this problem.

Since Safe mode works around the issue, continue troubleshooting macros. The first step is to rename the Normal template. Then troubleshoot Startup and COM add-ins. See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/troubleshoot/word/issues-when-start-or-use-word.

Hi mister Stefan_Blom,
Actually I'm not sure how to troubleshoot Startup and COM add-ins. if you mean to delete them then I'm afraid to delete a sensitive information so maybe I need to read the topic that you sent again carefully and it seems I need to read it completely, and the other thing
is that this problem happens for more than one template it's not just in Normal template, so I think microsoft needs to make some modifications in next update.- Stefan_BlomMay 01, 2025MVP
Instructions are found in the article I linked to: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/troubleshoot/word/issues-when-start-or-use-word.
