Microsoft Word/Microsoft Office: Turn off Entire Word Automatic Selection

How To Turn off Automatic Word Selection In Microsoft Office; Microsoft Word, Outlook, etc.

  1. Open Word, Excel, etc.
  2. Go to File, Options, then Advanced.
  3. Look for the option, "When selecting, automatically select the entire word" (it is enabled by default).
  4. You disable the 'feature' by deselecting its checkbox.
  5. Now Office will not automatically select the entire word when trying to select specific text!
