How do I get normal.dot back - autotext - it disappeared?

Answer 1

To restore the normal.dot template and its AutoText entries in Microsoft Word, first try reopening Word while holding the "Ctrl" key to bypass any saved settings. If that doesn’t work, search for the "normal.dot" or "normal.dotm" file on your computer, and if it's missing, you can create a new one by renaming an existing template or resetting Word to its default settings. Additionally, check the AutoText feature under the Insert tab to see if it’s still available and try to re-add any entries you need.
