How to make zotero associated with word
My Word has to be re-associated with zotero every time I open it so that the zotero option appears in Word, which was fine before!
Click on the zotero Word for windows integration,it shows that the installation could not be completed because an error occurred, make sure that Microsoft Word is turned off and then restarted,but my M is in the off state.

adomasvenDo you see a Zotero tab in Word? If you do, there is no need to do anything.
-
vera259Yes,I can see a Zotero tab in Word,but after closing word and opening it again Zotero Tab will disappear and have to be reset, before Zotero Tab has always existed.It's a problem that bothers me.
-
adomasvenWhat do you do to get the Zotero Tab to appear?
-
vera259Click on Developer Tools in Word, select the word add-in, and finally add zotero.dotm.
-
adomasvenIs Zotero.dotm present in the list and you just check the checkbox or do you need to add it from your file system?
-
vera259I just check the checkbox.
-
adomasvenIn that dialog when you select Zotero.dotm at the bottom it should say the Full path of the file. Does it end in Word\STARTUP\Zotero.dotm?
-
vera259it ends in \install\Zotero.dotm

adomasvenOk, you have installed the Zotero plugin wrong. You need to remove that entry from the dialog completely, then close Word, and reinstall the Word plugin from Zotero Preferences -> Cite -> Word Processors. If Zotero says that you must close Word before installing, restart your computer and attempt to install the plugin again. If that still doesn't help follow these instructions https://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_manual_installation
