    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?

  4. Hi, try to reinstall Parallels tools and perform the steps again and let us know if that makes any changes.
