Hi
I am getting a strange error with office 2016 application because of which i am unable to open any file downloaded from the internet. The files are shows as corrupted. i have tried reinstalling the office files, nothing has helped. Is this something to do with windows 10? or office specific? Please help
Thanks in advance
Have you tried running the Office Repair function?
Control Panel app >> Programs >> Program and Features then find MS Office.
Right-click it, then select Change. Follow the on-screen instructions.
Try this solution:

"To register Adodb.dll in the GAC, follow these steps:
- Click Start and then click Run.
- In the Run dialog box, type the following command, and then click OK: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\gacutil /i C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\Primary Interop Assemblies\adodb.dll"
Typing the first command as mentioned in the site gets me this message. What do i do now??
If it was me having the problem, I'd be looking to reinstall the .NET framework at this stage.
I only say that since the problem seems to be related to .NET.
The problem seems to have resolved. I had installed an add-on F1000. I uninstalled it while uninstalling office so after that the error has not come back. So looks like it was that research add-on that created the issue. Thank u for the help.
