Unfortunately that does not solve the problem for PowerPoint or Excel because if I remove SaveAsAdobePDF.ppam inside the PowerPoint folder or the SaveAsAdobePDF.xlam inside the Excel folder will trigger another [...] errors, you need to: Remove the SaveAsAdobePDF.ppam and SaveAsAdobePDF.xlam from the PowerPoint and Excel folders next to the Word folder. Launch Excel and PowerPoint and go to the menu Extras -> Excel Add-ins [...] Add-ins... , respectively, and remove the Save as Adobe PDF add-in, by unckecking it and removing it with the "-" button and then click OK. Restart Excel and PowerPoint and the problem should go away. If not
