This may shock all of you, but I figured it out on my own.
I disabled all application add-ins by clicking on the Microsoft office button, Word options, trust center, trust center settings, add-ins, disable all application add-ins (may impair functionality) — I did not care at this point — OK.
Thanks for all your help!
Why should we be shocked at that? You were smart enough to use Spiceworks, so you must be smart enough to do that!
Good luck. You may be able to enable other add-ins one at a time to see what the actual culprit is.

I have a little program that opens a word document, does some changes on a table, exports it to PDF, and then closes the document and application. When I open the document again it still has my original changes in the table. It looks like it is being cached in some kind of way. Here is my code:
private void Open()
{
appWord = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application();
appWord.DisplayAlerts = WdAlertLevel.wdAlertsNone;
string path = Environment.CurrentDirectory + "\Resources\document1.docx";
wordDocument = appWord.Documents.Open(path);
}
Remove some rows from some tables and export to PDF
private void Close()
{
object missing = Type.Missing;
object doNotSaveChanges = WdSaveOptions.wdDoNotSaveChanges;
wordDocument.Close(doNotSaveChanges, missing, missing);
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(wordDocument);
appWord.Quit(ref doNotSaveChanges, ref missing, ref missing);
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(appWord);
}
Am I closing the document in a wrong way? Or is it being cached? Some temp file that is saved somewhere? I don’t have any other word processes open.

The changes are not saved because when you are closing the doc, your are telling it not to save changes.
object doNotSaveChanges = WdSaveOptions.wdDoNotSaveChanges;
wordDocument.Close(doNotSaveChanges, missing, missing);
Try this instead:
object saveChanges = WdSaveOptions.wdSaveChanges;
wordDocument.Close(saveChanges, missing, missing);

We actually use the following (shortened) code when closing a Word document:
object varFalse = false;
object missing = System.Type.Missing;
if (m_wordDoc != null)
{
((Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document)m_wordDoc).Close(ref varFalse, ref missing, ref missing);
//m_wordDoc = null;
}
if (m_wordApp != null)
{
((Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application)m_wordApp).Quit(ref varFalse, ref missing, ref missing);
//m_wordApp = null;
}
You’ll notice that we use a bool
value for the first parameter. Still, the above code properly closes the document and the Word instance.
However, we create a temporary copy of the template Word file before we do stuff and export it as PDF. It could be that exporting the file as PDF implicitly saves the original, which doesn’t matter to us, as we delete the temporary file after the process.

You may have some unwanted opened instance of your Word in your Task Manager.
Workink with COM in .Net requires to release com objects. More than that, you cannot use dots when working with word interop (or any other COM object) in .Net since between the dots, temporarly objects are created behind the scene and need to be released.
For example:
wordDocument = appWord.Documents.Open(path);
Should be replaced with
wordDocuments = appWord.Documents
wordDocument = wordDocuments.Open(path);
// Once done, you need to release those objects
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(wordDocument);
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(wordDocuments);
You can look at this post, those are the same rules as in excel.

Question
-
My company is using a document conversion program that accesses Microsoft Word in order to convert a document to a PDF. It is supposed to open Microsoft Word and then immediately close it. For some reason, Microsoft Word stays in a running state
after it has been closed. When watching the process happen it takes 1 minute and 3 seconds for the document to convert, when it’s supposed to be around 4 -6 seconds. If you close out the running Word process, it will convert it immediately.This is a fresh install of Word 2016 only. If you open Microsoft Word itself, it has the same issue with the running process. It doesn’t close it and will stay running until you manually end task. Since Word does the same thing even without
using the document converter program, I know that the issue is with Word, not the converter. Any ideas?

In Windows 7, use Ctrl + Shift + Esc instead of Ctrl + Alt + Delete. It lets you in the Manager of tasks more quickly.

Windows does not close
I have «Windows is shutting down» screen but it does not close and try to stop the virtual machine is not to do anything. What can I do?
Choose the Virtual Machine menu, then hold the option key on your keyboard. Case comments must take off Power. Who should force on the virtual machine as if you were pulling the plug on a real machine. Once you start up check to see if it continues to be. It’s probably a windows service which stops not correctly. If he continues to to choose Start > run then type msconfig. In there, go to the area of services and the check hide all microsoft services and then click on disable all button. Then go to the Startup tab and disable all there too. Click ok, but restart again. Send a CtrlAltdel command to the virtual machine in the virtual machine menu and then in Manager tasks start to leave the services there until she is very minimal. Then restart. Once rebooted try to stop again. We expect that the virtual machine must close properly. If Yes, then you can activate material in the section services and startup in msconfig, slowly, until you determine which item in it is causing the problem.

To the best of my knowledge iTunes has all of the features that could stop him. What make you believe it’s iTunes rather than some other power saving feature? What happens exactly 30 minutes? It’s happens during playback video or audio?

Firefox does not close completely.
So since I have updated to the new Firefox it does not completely close when I hit X to close. Then the next time I go to open it it says something like ‘ Firefox is open but does not close it before trying to open it again. Has not done this before and is getting pretty annoying having to open my task manager everytime I want to open Firefox.
Is this a new problem with the new update, or something else in conflict?
In case you use ‘Clear history of Firefox closing’ and then try to disable this feature.
- Options > privacy > Firefox will be: «Use the custom settings for history»: [] ‘clear history of Firefox closing. «

When closing out MS Word 2007 (with or without a document open) — MS Word sort of closes but leaves a MS Word blue frame that does not close unless you click the X button several times and click the End Now or use the task manager to end the MS WORD process.

You might try reinstalling Office from scratch.
Removing the Add-Ins worked but took a loooooong time because MS Word locked up when I tried to remove them. I had to remove them one at a time.
