How to Remove Numbering from Some Pages in Word

In today's video, we will show you how to remove numbering from some pages in Word.
Open the document you need. Go to 'Layout' tab at the top of the window. Click on 'Breaks' under 'Page Setup' and choose 'Next page'. Scroll down to the next page and click on the footer. Click on the 'Link to Previous' in the top of a page. Delete the number in the footer, in our case, it's four. You can see the page has number 3, and the next page is without a number.
Put the mouse pointer in the beginning of page 5 and click on 'Page Number' and choose 'Bottom of Page' and then 'Plain Nuber 2'. You can see the page has number again. Select the page number you need, right-click on it and choose 'Format Page numbers'. Go to 'Page numbering' and check 'Start at 1' and click 'Ok'. You can see the numbering now begins from the fourth page. If you scroll up, you can see all above pages have their own numbering.

This was life-saving. I really don't know why they have to make it this complex though. You did a good job of explaining it very simple. Thank you :)

Contrary to popular belief, the simplest and most effective expression came from this guy, not from an Indian. Thank you very much!

I've never felt so under stood by a comment section before. I always thought I was an idiot for not being able to do simple tasks in Word, but now I understand that it was Word, not me.

Finally!!!! I have searched far and wide for this. ONLY THIS works. LOL

A great alternative : you create a white shape, and move it in front of the page number.

I just create a solid white box and cover the page number. It's easier.
