@adomasven Thank you a lot! :) Let me know if I can help with anything else. Regarding running Windows as an Administrator, I intend to get rid of Windows soon. Thank you a lot for the security tips, though!

@adomasven 1. I did not uninstall anything; I downloaded the Windows 64-bit ZIP. 2. I unzipped the content (C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Zotero-7.0.3-beta.1+2065a60b7_win-x64\Zotero_win-x64) 3. I ran zotero.exe from that catalog (no config needed;…

@dstillman UAC is still on the "Notify me only..." level. 1. I uninstalled old Zotero 7.0 (I kept my settings while uninstalling). 2. Installed the beta you provided (64-bit Installer). And... 3. "Zotero could not find a running Word instance." 4…

@adomasven Yes, I am using the default Windows Administrator account, which is disabled upon installation and needs to be manually enabled. Regarding your previous post about the Process Explorer, I will check that tomorrow. Apologies for the slow…

@adomasven I changed it back to "Notify me only when apps...". I restarted the PC. I checked - it stayed as "Notify me only when apps..." I tried running Notepad as admin and despite "Notify me only when apps..." being set, it did not ask me for Ad…

@adomasven Oh, interesting! It was set to "Never notify" before we began this troubleshooting. Then I changed it to "Notify me only when apps...". Since then, I restarted the computer several times and I am confident that the last time I checked, it…

In all cases, Notepad runs as High. UAC does not pop up when I run Notepad as Admin. Explorer.exe runs as High.

@adomasven The top processes: Word: High Zotero: High Word: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\ I googled it up and downloaded the file. Definitely not the Windows App Store. Zotero: C:\Program Files\Zotero\ Default location. It's not…

@adomasven I am confident that I did not install any additional security software (it's my private laptop).

@adomasven Sadly, I don't remember. I did not use a guide. My goal was to have a "pure" Windows for MS Word only (with Zotero and Grammarly). Reason: I normally use a dual-boot Linux, but sometimes I collaborate with people who aren't tech-savvy,…
-
@adomasven Yes, before I was told to change it, it was set to "Never Notify". If I recall correctly, I think I set it like that when I was setting up the operating system about two years ago.
-
@adomasven Yes, I just restarted it and it still works, despite the compatibility mode being off.
-
@adomasven I un-checked the "run in compatibility", restarted Zotero and Word, and voilà - it still works! Somehow using the compatibility fixed the issue even for no compatibility mode.
-
Oh wow, this is interesting. Your solution (running Zotero in Windows 8 Compatibility mode despite using Windows 10) actually fixed the issue. Zotero now works (I tested adding new in-text citations and playing with "Document Preferences" - none of …

I (re)installed the Microsoft VC redistributable from your link (and restarted the computer afterward :D) and no, sadly, the bug is still there.

I did restart my computer after step 3. Nothing happened. Update: No idea if it helps, but I'm providing a new ID after step 3: D180929079

Hi, thank you! Regarding https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/could_not_find_a_running_word_instance, I never had the "Could not find a running Word instance" error but I tried following the steps anyway. 1. Neither is being run as Admin (the "Run as…
