Word 2016 Stripped Features - Fail - So I need to Go back to 2013 - But CANT.

Word 2016 is a total fail. Microsoft removed the grammar editing features, along with 56 other features, that made Word great. i am happy with the other features, but no longer wish to use Word 2016.

I still have Word 2013 installed on my computer, but i cannot open files with it unless i manually select it and then open files from within the program. I cannot, no matter how hard i try, switch the default windows settings to Word 2013 instead of Word 2016. When changed the 'opens with' setting there is no option for Word 2013 - even though the program is still installed. I selected the  'more apps', then 'look for another app on this PC'.

I navigated to C:\program files\Microsoft Office\office15 and then selected the WINWORD.EXE file. I have also attempted to use WORDICON.EXE as the program, neither works. Now the 'opens with' field says for the DOC file (.doc) that it is opening with "Microsoft Office 2013 Component". However, when I double click the file to open it, it says "This app cant run on your PC, check with publisher".

It is terrible. Does anyone know how to fix this
