unremovable character in footnote

Somehow in working with Zotero within Word, a "}" showed up in my footnotes (I think through an automated or perhaps an interrupted Zotero process). When I try to remove it I receive the following error message: This is not a valid action for footnotes.
  • In all footnotes or in one?

    Where does it show up exactly in the footnote?
  • In two different footnotes, at the very end.
  • Would it be an option to just delete those footnotes and re-insert them. We could try troubleshooting this, but it's probably going to be a bit tedious and unlikely to point to a large rissue, so a simple fix would be ideal.
  • It doesn’t seem to delete the mark by deleting the footnote, but I will try copying and pasting everything else and then adding the footnote to the new doc and see if that works.
