Hi, I am new to Visual Studio! I am trying to run a simple macro using Visual Studio 2015, and once I clicked the "Start" button.

I got this error message:

"You cannot debug or run this project, because the required version of the Microsoft Office application is not installed."
"Unable to start debugging. Operation not supported. Unknown error: 0x80070057."

Any idea why am I getting this error message?

    Hi, please try uninstalling this app and reinstalling it. You just need to delete it in the control panel and check the box in the deological window to remove everything related to this program. And in addition to all this, you need to clean the disk from garbage and remnants of outdated programs. It is better to clean the disk in the control panel, right-click on the disk file, a small window will open at the bottom, click on the properties of the disk and on the main page you will see clean up the disk, click on clear, when the cleaning program opens, click on clear system files, then another window will open there, click on additional on the top of the window and at the bottom, click to clear. Further, on the recommendation of the program, you will figure it out for yourself.
