TariffShark Exception
Microsoft Word is not installed properly for TariffShark use. (Unable to cast COM object of type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.ApplicationClass' to interface type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word._Application'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{00020970-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}' failed due to the following error: Element not found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8002802B (TYPE_E_ELEMENTNOTFOUND)).)

First-Level Solution

We recommend doing a Microsoft Office repair then launch TariffShark again. If the repair does not work, uninstalling then re-installing Microsoft Office would be our next recommendation. This Microsoft Support article explains how to run both methods mentioned: [support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/repair-an-office-application-7821d4b6-7c1d-4205-aa0e-a6b40c5bb88b].
