Cannot create macro in MS Word - just upgraded to Windows 10

I have just upgraded to Windows10 and installed MS Office 2007 (sorry old version I know)

I am trying to create a new macro in Word and i get the following error message

"The function you are attempting to run contains macros or content that requires macro language support.
When this software was installed you chose not to install support for macros or controls."

Any help please as I have changed all the Trust Centre Settings, rebooted PC and tried again and still no joy.

Right-click the Start button in Windows and select Control Panel from the context menu.

Click Programs and Features.

Select your version of Microsoft Office 2007, then click Change.

Select 'Add or Remove Features', then click Continue.

Expand 'Office Shared Features'.

Click on 'Visual Basic for Applications' and make sure that 'Run from My Computer' is selected.

Click Continue, then Finish.

Thanks for the advice Paul - I thought these were totally separate forums, hence posting in both.

I have now marked both posts as answered.

Thanks Edward - I thought that was where I had posted originally.

Sorry for the confusion for everyone.

They are separate, which is why it's important to observe the cross-posting etiquette.
