How to Remove Footers in Microsoft Word Documents

1. Open Microsoft Word. Click on the "File" menu at the top of the screen and click on the "Open" command.
2. Browse through the documents on your computer until you find the document with the footer you would like to delete. Click on it to select it and then click the "Open" button.
3. When the file opens, click on the "View" menu on the top of the screen and select "Header and Footer."
4. Click on the "Footer" button on the "Header and Footer" toolbar that appears. This places a cursor in the footer area and gray out the rest of the document.
5. Highlight all of the text in the footer and press "Backspace" on your keyboard. This removes the footer from all pages. Click on the "Close" button on the toolbar to go back to the document. Click on the "Save" button to save your changes.
