Word toolbar navigation display is corrupted. How do I fix this?

The toolbar / navigation on my Word program is messed up.  See picture.  I've restarted the program a couple times but the display is still bad.  I can minimize and close the program where one would normally assume the buttons would be located, but I would like to have the display back to its normal self!

For this, I would try completely uninstalling Office, restarting and installing Office and patch fully.

If you still have issues, make a new, test, Windows User Profile (Account).  Log into the new Windows Account and test Word.

Good luck.

I tried to repair the program.  It did not work.
I uninstalled Office.  Restarted the machine.
Downloaded Office from M$.
Opened a Word doc and got this.

Excel is not exhibiting this behavior.
PowerPoint is not exhibiting this behavior.

What should I try next?
