Unable to open htm-file.

Hi,

Friend of mine wrote a book in Word. I converted it as suggested in User Guide File->Save As Filtered HTML.

I was able to open it in version 0.7.1 but today I installed new version 0.9.7 and failed to open.

The error is:
---------------------------------
The following file was not loaded due to invalid content or not well formed XML:
[full path file name] (line 786: @787:43: That tag isn't allowed here Currently open tags: html, body, div..)

Try setting the Clean Source preference to Mend XTML Source Code on Open and reloading the file.
----------------------------------

1. First of all there is no "Clean Source" but "Mend XTML Source Code On"
2. I try to open file with and without check "Open" - same result, file is not opened and there is only "Close" button.
3. I don't understand why older version is able to open the file but the latest one is not.
4. There are a lot of errors in converted file and I am willing to clean it but how I can do it if I am not able to open in Sigil?

Sigil
Version: 0.9.7
Loaded Qt: 5.6.1
Build time: 2016.10.29 15:56:51 UTC

Thanks
