Default no longer works for default open DOC/DOCX with Word

For quite some time, I had set my Finder defaults to open DOC/DOCX files with Word (Win version), rather than Pages. Coming in to the office on a Monday morning, I was surprised that my DOC/DOCX files had reverted to Pages.

When I tried going Get Info >> Open with, I would browse to the Microsoft Word.app to find that it was greyed out (not selectable). In addition, clicking the Word icon in my Dock would cause a little question mark to be superimposed on the icon

i tried restart both Windows and Mac - but nothing changed.

what can I do?
