macro language support message pops up whenever I try to open Word Document in Office 365

Just installed Office 365 on my desktop but now I am getting the following error message when I try to open all Word documents:  "The function you are attempting to run contains macros or content that requires macro language support. When this software was installed, you (or your administrator) chose not to install support for macros or controls." Can't seem to fix it.

 

I installed Office 365 and uninstalled Office 2010. Now I'm plagued with these messages everytime I try to open a Word document. I can click on it 3 times and it goes away, but it's very annoying. How can I fix this?  I also get a user account control message asking if I want to let it make changes to my computer.... happens when trying to open every Word document, but didn't do this before loading Office 365.
