I got a few problems with word lately, but that doesn't matter anymore. I've switched from 2007 to 2016. Now I'm getting an error whenever I try to open a downloaded document. Unblocking the file will solve the issue. I've found and executed a program that unblocks every file in a specific folder with success. The only issue now is that all new downloaded files are still blocked. Is there a way to turn the function off? I'm using Windows 10 Home, so gpedit is a no-go. I've also tried setting Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Attachments\SaveZoneInformation to 1, but that doesn't work either...

if there is no other way, then I'll make another topic about the error of the other Word-version
