    If that is happening, you should probably nuke your system. Word is not supposed to open up a cmd, and malicious macros have been a prime vector for malware for decades at this point

        Sure, if it’s company managed. I wouldn’t trust myself to find all malware though, so I’d go the route of backing up important stuff (better yet, have it backed up already) and then reinstalling the OS

        But then again, I’m on NixOS and haven’t touched windows in months, so that’s not really a problem I have
