I am using microft word 16.78 on a brand new mac desktop. It was working for a day perfectly but now I can't edit any word documents. I can still edit in Pages so it must be a word problem. Instructions are to go to 'info' under the file tab but there is no such option under file. Any ideas?

Microsoft Word (notice the correct spelling David) is not an Apple product.If you are having difficulty chances are.
Installing one (or more) of the above types of apps is a common error made by inexperienced users. These types of apps at best are 100% unnecessary as they do nothing that Mac OS does not already do. They can modify and damage Mac OS which cause odd behaviors and make Mac OS appear buggy.
My recommendation is to do the following and we can look for obvious issues that may be causing your problem with MS Word.
