Word freezes and restarts after opening embedded PDF links

Copper Contributor

There are PDF links in the comment boxes of various Word files I am working on.

Word freezes and usually requires a restart and recovery of the file after opening a PDF link.

If it's a web link, this does not happen.

 

Has anybody experienced this?

Is there any work around?

Hi,
which version of Word are you using? part of Microsoft 365 package or perpetual licenses such as Office 2019?
is your Word up to date?
