I have used Act before on another, older computer. I installed in on my new computer (which has Windows 10) and I cannot access the word templates because word is not the default word processor. I go into tool and try and switch the word processor to Word, but Word is not listed.
I have two versions of word. I have word 2007 and 2016. I followed an online tutorial to change registry permissions, but that has not fixed the problem.

ACT! 2010 isn't supported on Windows 10 so there's no idea why Word 2007 isn't available. Word 2016 wouldn't be supported for ACT! 2010.

On my older computer both programs worked together fine in Windows 10. I currently have both in compatibility mode for Windows 7. I wouldn't think that migrating them to a new computer would cause them to not work together.

I'm not surprised. There are likely legacy file on the old computer that aren't provided by Windows 10.

Hi jrteeter,
As Roy has already stated, unfortunately Act! 2010 is not supported on Windows 10. Full compatibility listings can be found in our Compatibility Matrix.
For reference, we do have a Knowledgebase article on the subject of Word not being available as a default word processor: http://kb.act.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/13756
