Word can't open template

Split from this thread.

Hello,

I have been working on a Word document generated from a template (ftp://ftp.springer.de/pub/tex/latex/llncs/word/splnproc1110.zip) for a few months, and I keep both the document and its template on OneDrive. For about a week now, when I try to open the document, Word gets stuck at the splash screen trying to open the template, and I have to force-close it. Opening the file in the Safe Mode works, but I don't get the toolbars that the template provides. I appreciate any help with this.

Thank you!

I would move the template to the local drive and attach it to the document from that location.

I would also have the document on the local drive and only use OneDrive as a "backup"

Hope this helps,
