Excel error: Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (Class not registered)

Question

I had this problem since I installed and uninstalled Visual Studio 2013. When I open Excel, this windows pop up and I have to press OK 18 times to get rid of it

Then when I close Excel, the above windows pop up again. This time, I only have to press OK once, but then another windows come up

Is it because I installed and uninstalled Visual studio 2013 ? I realized all of the Office apps get problem ever since I installed Visual Studio. Help me with it, thanks.

P/S: my PowerPoint got crashed also. But other Office apps like Project, Word... still work smoothly

Hello,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community.

After removing Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, since you are facing this issue with Excel and PowerPoint also, rather than resolving the issue on an individual application basis it is best to resolve the issue affecting the Office 2013 installation. Office 2013 installation on your computer seems to be corrupt on the computer. I suggest it would be best to do an Online Repair of Office 2013 on your computer.

Follow these steps to perform the Online Repair of Office 2013:

1. Press the Windows logo key + X to see a list of commands and options. (Basically a quick way to get to Programs and Features in Control Panel.)
2. Click Programs and Features.
3. Click the Office 2013 program and then click on Change.
4. Click Online Repair.
5. Once competed restart your computer.
6. Check if you are now able to work normally in Excel, PowerPoint and other Office applications.

Try the above steps and let us know the result.

Thank you.
