I keep getting "Compile error in hidden module:link" when trying to open a word document. I see 4 downloads for Mac computers to fix the issue, but wonder which one do I use? Or do I have to download all 4?

Hi chrisr20245513

Could you please let me know the version of Acrobat installed on your machine?

Does the error message appears when you start other MS Office applications like Excel?

Which macOS version you have on your machine?

I have this same problem. I am using the latest Mac Word (15.18), and the latest Acrobat DC (2017.009) on OS/X 10.10.5 (Yosemite). I just updated to the latest DC, it keeps installing linkcreation.dotm in the Word startup directory which gets this error. When I delete that file, I don't get this error.
