A user reported a change in the way that Microsoft Word documents open when working in Google Chrome.
The behavior was originally to automatically launch a new session of Microsoft Word, the change was that the program no longer automatically launched and it opened a Save Document dialog.
The fix this, the temporary internet files for this type of document had to be cleared from the location they were being saved.
When a document was automatically launched, it was given a temporary file name name.doc. As these get created again and again, windows will append a number to the end of the file such that name.doc becomes name.doc (0), name.doc (1), name.doc (2)...
The limit for this is 100 documents (up to name.doc (99)). At the point of the limit the program will no longer automatically launch and will open a Save Document dialog.
