Word Crashes When Trying to Switch Footnotes to Endnotes
Hi. I'm writing a paper for class using Zotero to generate footnotes, and the final format has to be endnotes, but I typically switch the format at the end so I don't have to keep scrolling from beginning to end while I write. However, I tried to switch my footnotes to endnotes using the typical process, and Word crashes every single time. Some of my notes have prefixes or suffixes, but that is the only thing I can see that might be causing an issue. I'd like to try to keep them so I don't have to put them all back in later, but I'm really quite confused and frustrated, so any help would be extremely appreciated. Thank you.
What exact Word version? And can you provide a Report ID?
Word version: for Mac, Version 16.84 (24041420)
I can't generate a Report ID from Zotero as it just appears blank — thank you for sending the guide, but I suppose since I'm working on a Mac, it might not be possible.

If so, are you using Dark Mode on your computer? Have you previously run any sort of third-party utility that affects Dark Mode?
Try closing Zotero, opening Terminal (via Spotlight), pasting in (not typing) this command, and pressing Return:
