I’ve been using Microsoft Office 2007 for a long time but I haven’t encounter that error yet nor any kind of error. If you receive that error on starting up Microsoft Office Word, click “OK” to close the dialog and then try opening Office Word again and see if it works. If the program starts correctly, the error is probably just a glitch.

But if the error comes back, try reinstalling the Microsoft Office Word application. Click “Start,” “Control Panel,” and then “Add or Remove Programs.” On the next screen, select Microsoft Office then click “Change.” On the next screen, make sure “Add or Remove Features” is selected then click “Continue.” In the “Installation Options” of Microsoft Office, select “Microsoft Office Word” then set its option to “Not Available.”

Click “Continue” then wait until setup is complete. When it is finished, close the Control Panel then open your web browser and download the free version of CCleaner and install it. Once installed, start CCleaner and clean your system. Restart your computer then repeat the same steps to access the “Installation Options” of Microsoft Office.

Select “Microsoft Office Word” again and set it to “Run from My Computer” or “Run all from My Computer” then click “Continue.” Run Office Word again and see if it works. If you want to convert CCleaner to Pro, download the codes and follow the instructions.
