You can open Microsoft Word application with Windows + R button and type winword command . This is the fastest and shortest way to start Microsoft Word on a Windows computer. Although there are few other options to run this application that I have mentioned below.
The majority of Windows users prefer Microsoft Word as it is obviously an easy-to-use, handy, and easy-to-use application. Although there are alternative software such as WordPad. But WordPad also has its limitations and of course it can never be compared to MS Word. It's good to know some shortcuts and command line instructions when using Microsoft Word in daily digital life. This certainly saves a few seconds (as they say, seconds count!). So, without further ado, let's check what are the commands available to launch Word.
Steps to use Command Prompt to start Word:
- Press Windows + R to open the 'Run' command.
- Type cmd and press Enter
This will launch MS Word and this command line will work with all Microsoft Windows operating systems.
Let me rephrase your instructions. Suppose you want to open an existing Word file that is on the desktop and its location
C:\Users\MyFolder\file.docx is then:
Start Winword C:\Users\MyFolder\file.docx
Bonus Tip
There is another easy way to start MS Word:
- Press the Windows key and type word or winword
- It will automatically select the installed version of Microsoft Office (like 2007, 2103, 2016) and press Enter
- pressed. This will open the Word file.
Most of all I prefer the first method, win + r and winword. 🙂 To sum it up, choose a shortcut that's easier by your side. Hope that helps !!!
