It means that Word can't find the file from where you're trying to open it.
Hardware is anything you can actually touch. Something you can kick when it makes you angry!The computer itself, keyboard, mouse, webcam, printer... Software is the programs, the data, the things you cannot see or touch physicaly...The stuff that's stored on the hardware! :D
The operating system cannot be called hardware. It is a program developed to use and perform calculations between the hardware processor, memory and information stored on a hard drive.
Yes. A working computer is composed of hardware which physically exists as opposed to software which is stored in the hardware and subject to change in normal usage. So a chip is hardware. A computer program is software.
It is a software driven hardware device. Part of the laser printer hardware is an embedded computer (a computer that the user is usually not aware of) that runs the printer mechanism control software stored in ROM (software stored in ROM is usually called firmware, because it cannot be changed as easily as software stored in RAM). This printer mechanism control software coordinates the functions of all the hardware mechanism of the printer and is much smaller than custom designed logic circuits that would do the same thing without an embedded computer.
If you opened up your computer system you would see many different components that do different tasks and the computer will not work without them, if you can touch these objects then it would be classed as hardware (solid components),anything stored on your computer that you cannot touch is classed a Software. Here are a few essential hardware devices: CPU, GPU, PSU, RAM, HDD, FAN.
No, reformatting does not harm hardware. You just loose all your stored data.

The OS is stored in the Hard Disk of the computer.
A computer monitor is used to display the data and graphics that are stored in your hardware. It controls the contrast, light and display for the computer.
By increasing Computer Space the amount of data that can be stored is increased.
Hardware are all the components that physically make up your computer; a keyboard, mouse, monitor, printer, and so on are all physical devices that you can touch and interact with. Software and data, in contrast, are logical and cannot be physically interacted with. While software is stored in a physical medium, it cannot be directly interacted with, because it only exists as a state within the hardware. Manipulation of software and data occurs through the physical interface, the hardware.
Hardware is the mechanical components of a computer including physical RAM chips, CPU, Motherboard, disc drives.Software is the program material, stored on and used by the computer as instructions and data. Generally it can be copied, transferred and manipulated easily.Firmware is software that has been permanently stored on a computer memory chip. Generally the only way of transferring this data, is by moving the chip it is stored on. So you can 'plug in' new data.
