What happens when, rather than clicking on the .docx files, you instead

--- Thanks for the interest, but I guess I'm not sure what you're
talking about. The file in question exists only as a link -- the one
I'm trying now, for example, is "racism in the twentieth century.docx"

I can't drag the link anywhere. And when I click on that link, as I
said, an entire folder appears on my desktop. I can't drag the folder
onto the Office Converter's appllication window . . . it disappears.
If I click on the folder, I get three more folders, including one
called "word" . . . which seems promising . . . but when I click on
THAT folder, I just get a lot of .xml files -- and when I try to drag
ANY of them onto the Office Converter's application window, it too
disappears.

Very frustrating!
