Word 10 crashes when trying to insert citations
The following problem description refers to Report ID 1508319867. I recently started using a new laptop with Windows 10, including the Office Package. The first days working on files that I had created on my old laptop using an older word version with Zotero was fine. But then Windows began to crash repeatledly whenver I tried to insert a new citation. I tried all steps described here:
https://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_troubleshooting#zotero_experienced_an_error_updating_your_document_with_word_2010
after copy-pasting the whole text (without the bibliography) into a new file and using a new reference style Zotero first worked fine and I thought I had solved the problem. But now it reoccured and I don't no why since I did not copy any textpassages with citations from other (old) files or the like. Any thoughts?
Any help would be most welcome as I am getting desperate...

I just tried and now it sometimes seem to work before crashing again unexpectatly. Neither convenient, nor reliant...
