This tutorial explains how to restrict editing in Microsoft Word. Specifically, we will (1) limit edits to comments only, (2) prevent users from making untracked changes, (3) allow users to fill in forms without making additional changes, and (4) mark the entire document as Read Only for specific users.

This video was filmed in Word 2016. However, the steps are the same in Word 2019 and Word for Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) and are similar in Word 2013 and Word 2010.
