    Using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 12.5 on Windows 7. Today there was a problem getting to work in Word 2016.
    I normally activate by clicking file – options – add-ons – click NaturallySpeaking – go – check the box – okay. That enables it in Word. But today there was a problem with Word and it gave me the option to disable Dragon. I foolishly did this. Now I cannot get it to work again in my Word document. This is very problematic as I am rather disabled and cannot do much typing.
    Please help. Thank you

    1. Open Word 2016.
    2. Select File.
    3. Select Options.
    4. Under Word Options, click on Add-ins.
    5. Select the Disabled Items from the Manage drop-down list.
    6. Click Go.
    7. Highlight dgnword.dll in the Disabled Items list.
    8. Click Enable.

    Thank you this did it. Related question.. how to keep DNS automatically activated everytime I open a Word doc instead of having to manually do so. Just a small annoyance but one too many. thanks
