Alright so I have seen several answers to these questions and tried several of them with no avail. Whenever I open Microsoft Word 2010 I get a window that states
Compile error in hidden module: AZWizardModul. This error commonly occurs when code is incompatible with the version, platform, or architecture of this application.
So the question is what do I do? I have gone to File>options>Add-ins>Word Add-ins>Go> but when I select the AVWiz14s.dotm the remove button does not become available.
I have also tried going to Program Files>Microsoft Office>2012>Startup but AVWiz14s.dotm was not there to remove or disable.
I don't know if it makes a difference in what I do in the program but it is frustrating having to deal with it every time I open up Word.
A family of Microsoft word processing software products for creating web, email, and print documents.

You should uninstall the Avery Wizard via the Windows Control Panel>Uninstall Programs facility.
The Avery Wizard is a completely, flawed and unnecessary piece of crapware.
I went crazy trying to get this Avery error message out of Word. I got online, took others' advice, and went through and deleted every file attached to the Avery software, to no avail. Finally I realized the deleted files were all still in my recycling bin! Once those were permanently deleted, the problem went away. A silly little thing overlooked :)
In Word, go to the Developer tab of the Ribbon and then in the Add-ins section, click on COM Add-ins and if the Avery Wizard appears there, uncheck the box along side it.
I don't have Office 2010, but I do have Office 365 which gives me Word 2013. Did that whole uninstall routine, but the error message still shows up. For some reason, going through the typical "uninstall programs" protocol won't extract all the code from the most recent version of Word that's available to me. What should I do now?
(Edited to add the following information)
I thought I had uninstalled it, but I checked again and it was there. So I went through the process again, but the uninstall failed. It gave me the following error message: "Error 1316. The specified account already exists." I will have to see if Avery's website has an uninstall program for this vaporware.
Thank you it worked! Everything is running smoothly!
