Check if you get the same error message when the computer is in clean boot. This will make sure that there’s no interference from third party application.

Refer this article for detailed information on how to do this.

If the problem doesn’t return during clean boot configuration, it’s likely due to one of the applications that are conflicting with office applications.

Follow the steps given in the article below to determine the culprit.

If the problem returns even when in clean boot state, check your event log for complete information on the error message.
