    Since I took the latest Windows update, I have been unable to access any of the apps in Office 2013. I know it is no longer supported by Microsoft, but it worked and now it does not.

    When I launch Word, I get a popup stating something went wrong, try restarting your program and if that does not work, try repairing it from the Programs and Features in the Control Panel.

    When I go there and try to fix it, it states that it is unable to start your program, please ensure it is not disabled by the system. I get this same error message when I try to launch Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.

    Any ideas on how I can get this to work again?

    1) Run office repair - usually in add/remove - programs and features, you can right click and select repair.
    2) Roll back the update?
