<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[Category:Wordfast Classic Troubleshooting]]<br /> <br /> In most cases, the &quot;... should be closed&quot; message in [[Wordfast Classic]] is caused by a &quot;ghost&quot; instance of Word running in the background, although no Word windows appears to be open.<br /> <br /> Please press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open the Task Manager (OR press Ctrl+Alt+Del, and then select the &quot;Start Task Manager&quot;). Click the 'Processes' tab, and sort running processes by alphabetical order and see if there is a winword.exe process. If so, select it and click on the 'End process' button in the lower right corner. This should solve your problem.<br /> <br /> Note: If this happens frequently, consider creating a new account on your machine, which should solve the issue.<br /> <br /> If you have this issue for only one document, try to select all the content of the document and copy it to a new document, close the document causing the issue, and then try again with new document.</div>
