I'm not sure but check once again: Go into Word > Long-hold the document from Recent and then Pin to Start.
You could go to File Explorer > Long hold on the document > Pin to Start
Or if these options are not available upload your file to OneDrive if you don't mind, then go to OneDrive > Long press on document > pin to start.
Hope this Helps. Best of luck! Comment if you need help.
