Having Hookmark running creates bookmarks in Microsoft Word when copying and highlighting text

Bug Reports

Hi!

I’ve had a really annoying bug in Microsoft Word recently (see image), and I think I finally figured out the problem.

Whenever I highlight or copy text in Word, it will randomly create bookmarks in my Word document. These are distracting while working, and I have to manually delete them all before I can collaborate on the document with others.

After systematically testing things based on a response in a Word forum, I’ve found that Hookmark is likely the source of this issue. When Hookmark is running, I have the problems in Word. If I quit Hookmark, the problems go away.

Is there anything I can do to be able to continue using both Hookmark and Word without this issue?

Thank you!!

MacOS 13.4.1, M1 Pro
Hookmark v5.1.3
