I Cannot open Word documents or start Fix it

Good day,
I can't open any word document, any other Office program, or open any fix it solution. I receive the following error message: "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0150004)". "There was a problem sending the command to the program"

I have tried to scan for Malware with Avast free edition and Malwarebytes, but the scans turn out clean.

PDF files also cannot open with Adobe reader.

I have run Windows Update, but the problem still exists. If I try to Uninstall Word, to try and re-install the application, an error message tells me that a required Dll. is missing.

Please help!
Thanks
