Microsoft Word Freezing Constantly
This is an issue that I am experiencing too. I am currently working on a one name genealogy study. My document is currently at 131,000 words, and 411 pages, and I have yet to add a table of contents, table of figures and table of tables. There are 225 images and over 100 tables. Just typing a single sentance takes ages. I have tried to use styles as much as possible. Recent updates have removed the replace images with placeholders. I dread to think what will happen if I try and create an index! I have tried, and suffered massive document corruption, using Master Documents. Splitting the document up makes it imposible to add cross references and manage numbering of figures, tables, etc.. I'm running Win 10 and Word 2021 (not sure exectly which release). I have other projects that risk becoming of a of similar size as my research progresses. I also use links to Excel for the inclusion of statistical and charts and graphs. I really need practical help to overcome the constant freezing issues, and means to get Word working with my long and complex documents.
