    The best first option would be to perform a full repair of your Office installation.

    Open the Settings App (gear icon on your Start Menu)

    Go to Apps, then scroll down to find Microsoft Office

    Select that and choose Modify - Online Repair.

    That should fix any issues with your Office Installation.
