What happened? I was working on a Word (.docx) document, adding links from the internet (Fireforx), and when I did my regular save of the document, it surprised me and saved it as an HTML document. WHY, WHY, WHY? Now I need to convert it back to a .docx document but there is no option in Firefox for doing that. I cannot open the HTML document in Word. Please help. I am about to abandon Firefox forever.

Hi David, don't panic. Were you editing in Office365 or Google Apps, etc.? The platform on which you were editing still should have your original document, and if you use its menus instead of using Firefox's Save Page As function, you should get the correct format.

Editing on Word 2011 for Mac when this happened. Firefox does not have a ".doc" save as function. I ended up cut and pasting from HTML into a new word document. I still don't understand how this happened in the first place. Maybe the new Firefox 57.0 is at fault?

If you are editing the document in Word, where does Firefox come into the picture?

I was editing a document in Word and copying links from Firefox into my Word document. When I did my usual save command in Word the document ended up being saved on my desktop as an HDML document. I exited Word before realizing what had happened. This has never happened to me before.

I think the usual command is what happened. Word looked at all the html links and decided it was something else.

    • It was mentioned above that you should be using the Save As Command instead. Please try this. **

Word tends to butcher html anyways. Is there a reason that Word needs to be used as Notepad would be ideal for what you are doing.


Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

-WHAT DID YOU DO W/MY REPLY? If your API is going to jerk the page away suddenly while I'm writing, you might at least pop a warning. Something, Moz. Now WHAT have we learned, class? That in any web API- yes, even Moz- one must never compose one's thoughts ON the web page , as if expecting 100% reliability. As Pkshadow notes above, WHY DON'T we use NOTEPAD, the quaint, constant accessory Ms unaccountably still permits us, OEM? Why the hell indeed did I not type it out there, & then cc my poils to this fickle rectangle? My help is forever lost to all generations. So too ESPECIALLY in later v.s of Windows, Office, and Word (per above): Use NP whenever possible. Save your cc'd text from web pages into Notepad et voila: Less pesky, risky hypertext, links, beacons, bots, & other crud is liable to be imported into your Word docx. You can go back & retrieve any URLs you need for individual links you want to highlight manually in the text. IF you stll want a Word docx (not open-source freeware Apache Open Office or the like?) save your FINAL notepad.txt as file type.docx.

   What i also tried to underline, before Moz disappeared my thoughts, was Pkshadow's key words :
"Word...LOOKED AT...AND DECIDED."

The later the v. of Windows, Office, Word, &tc., the more Ms has dumbed it down w/more cartoon icons, less text, less flexibility, options,& transparency, & less tolerance of any colouring outside the lines- anything corp. HQ hasn't foreseen. The downside of convenience & automation is being dumb. You have to relearn old habits of mindfulness, thinking, choice. You must save a .docx regularly, in that format or 1 you choose, & in a local folder that you create & name, so you know where the last v. you saved is, in case Word "LOOKS...and DECIDES" to save it as HTML & whisk it away to the clouds. Or else this driverless car you think you're operating might drive your great ideas off a cliff while you dream.
