Error message "Word Can Not Open this Document Template (C:.\...\14\Built-In-Building Blocks.dotx)" appears when trying to add page numbers or doing other operations related to headers and footers.

This is often caused by corrupted Building Blocks.dotx file.

  • Close Microsoft Office
  • Navigate to: "C:\Users\<user.name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Document Building Blocks\1033\14" and delete two files:
    Building Blocks.dotx
    Built-In Building Blocks.dotx
  • These files will be re-created by MS Word automatically.
