Office Applications not working in Windows 10 - Error 0xc0000018

Microsoft Word, Excel, etc, are not opening properly after update to Windows 10. I receive the following error:

"The application was unable to start correctly. (0xc0000018). Click OK to close the application.

Any thoughts as to what may fix this?

Windows 10 comes with some bugs after all.

That's a BIG BUG for a student with papers due this week, all saved in Microsoft Word. You would think that parent company would have a consideration to such a huge oversight.  I've uninstalled Office and tried to reload but nothing and I can't get help from support online or by phone.

After upgrading to Windows 10, office got a lot of problems.

As far as I know there are 2 useful method.

1. repair Office.

2. disable Cortana Voice  and stop Cortana Service:

Cortana/Settings/"Hey Cortana" switch to off  &  Open Task Manager Find and Right-Click Cortana Service End Task

Good luck
