dest_dir=$(dirname "$1")
cd "$dest_dir"

I find it infuriating that Word (and the rest of Microsoft Office) does that. I think I understand what they are trying to do: avoiding removing a file from OneDrive and then losing it, but there should at least be the option for us “daring enough” to enable it…
