visible HTML Code from Word sometimes, sometimes not

Hi,

we needed to use the visual editor for our forum, since a lot of the normal users are not familiar with html, especially when it comes to URLs/Links

Sadly, there are a lot of copy&paste related texts that are showing visible code.
Mostly METADATA from word, when someone copied text from a doc or docx file.

Now, the strange thing is, that I couldn´t reproduce this with my version (Office 2016, Win 8).
The visual editor looks fine (the text editor is full of meta data, a mess, but it “looks OK”)

Has anyone an idea why this happens to some users and some not?

I found a plugin for this kind of problem, but maybe there are recommendations, experiences or other solutions. Thank you in advance!
