    Hi,

    How did you re-install Office 2016?

    If you uninstall Office from Contral Panel only, this problem may related not uninstalling completely.

    I suggest you download the Office tool and run the tool to uninstall Office completely:

    Then re-install Office 2016 and check if this issue is still existed.
