Lexyron

Download Lexyron for Word

Lexyron is free to use. Until it appears in Microsoft Marketplace, install it with the small package below. It contains no program files: it only tells Word where to load Lexyron from, so you always get the latest version.

Download installer (ZIP, 4 KB)

For Word in Microsoft 365, Word 2021 and Word 2024. Version 1.1.0.

Windows

  1. Open the downloaded ZIP file and click Extract all. Running the file from inside the ZIP does not work.
  2. In the extracted Lexyron folder, double-click install-windows.cmd. If Windows shows “Windows protected your PC”, click More info, then Run anyway.
  3. Close all Word windows and open Word again.
  4. On the Home tab click Lexyron. If the button is missing, go to Insert, Add-ins, My Add-ins, Developer Add-ins.

To remove Lexyron, run uninstall-windows.cmd from the same folder.

Mac

  1. Open the downloaded ZIP file. It unpacks into a Lexyron folder.
  2. Right-click install-mac.command and choose Open. Confirm if macOS asks.
  3. Quit Word completely (Cmd+Q) and open it again.
  4. Go to Insert, Add-ins, My Add-ins and choose Lexyron.
