Run-time error: '5'
I cannot get Zotero into Word 365. I see the buttons but when I start it, I have an error message: "Run-time error: '5': Invalid procedure call or argument." Then I debug it to open Visual Basic. There it shows a highlighted row: MacScript "try" & nl$ & "do shell script """ & pipeLocation$ & "; if [ -e \""$PIPE\"" ]; then echo '" & wordVersion$ & " " & func & " "" & POSIX path of (path to current application) & ""' > \""$PIPE\""; else exit 1; fi;""" & nl$ & "on error" & nl$ & "display alert ""Word could not communicate with Zotero. Please ensure that Zotero is open and try again."" as critical" & nl$ & "end try"
Can I change the text somehow to get it to work or can you provide me with another dotm file?

Default sartup folder is: C:\Users\Agnes\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Office.Desktop_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP
and copied it to the startup folder that Word 365 has (see up)
as explained here in the first section: https://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_manual_installation
And then it shows the error message. Zotero itself works fine with, also with the Chrome. Maybe I installed the whole Zotero wrong (if it is possible?)
Remove the Zotero.dotm file the you currently have in your Word startup folder. Uninstall Zotero, download it and reinstall (this will not remove your Zotero data). Then go into Zotero Preferences -> Cite -> Word Processors and reinstall the Word plugin. Restart Word and see whether it shows up and whether it works now.
Zotero tab only appeared when I copied the file in the Word startup folder, which is very different what you say it would be on the webpage. Maybe that is the reason?
Now in this folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Zotero\extensions\zoteroWinWordIntegration@zotero.org\install
I still have two files (Zotero.dot and Zotero.dotm).
