I've been using Word 365 "Windows 11 Home" templates for many years - 0.5 inch on top / bottom and 1 inch on both sides. Now the 0.5 inch on top has been set to 0 inches.

I disabled Copilot to no avail. How do I get back to normal?

BTW I've been using MS Word for decades. This problem is not my mistake.
