Script not working in InDesign

One of my scripts is not working in InDesign CC15. The same script works on a different computer so it is not the script. I have also tried to move it into a different folder in the scripts panel. How can I edit the script to make it work.

NameDocumentLinks

This version allows you to  select  just the copyright info and run that without the file name.

Adds a name label with the link name, path, type, and status above the linked object (graphics & texts).

The link is placed in a new "Link Info" layer, and are set as nonprinting objects.

You could try setting up a version folder in your scripts folder. Here are instructions—the post is old but it should still apply. CS3 would be Version 5.0:

I think you should move your question to the InDesign Scripting Forum. I'll bet someone over there will be able to solve your problem.
