An identified security issue in Microsoft® Visual Basic® for Applications could allow an attacker to compromise a Microsoft Windows®-based system and then take a variety of actions. For example, an attacker could read files on your computer or run programs on it. By installing this update, you can help protect your computer. In the Manage drop-down menu at the bottom, select Disabled Items. Select SmartView and choose Enable. If Smart View is not listed in the Disabled Items dialog box, a Windows Registry modification will be necessary to resolve the issue. Make sure you have a backup copy of Windows Registry, before attempting to make any changes in it.

Applicability

Issue

1. When performing a copy and paste operation, users sometimes see this Visual Basic error:
2. The error shown above sometimes appears when launching Word.

Solution

It is likely the file MathPage.WLL is not located in Office's STARTUP folder. To add it manually, please follow these steps:

1. Visit whichever of these folders is appropriate for your bit-level of Office:
   C:Program Files (x86)MathTypeMathPage32
C:Program Files (x86)MathTypeMathPage64
2. Once copied, visit the following location:
   C:Users[user name]AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWordSTARTUP

   Note this folder is normally hidden, so if you don’t have Windows set up to show hidden folders, you won’t be able to see it. If you still can't find this folder, you may paste the file here:
   C:Program Files or Program Files(x86)Microsoft OfficerootOffice16STARTUP
   or
   C:Users[user name]AppDataLocalPackages
Microsoft.Office.Desktop_8wekyb3d8bbweLocalCacheRoamingMicrosoftWordSTARTUP
3. After pasting the file, be sure to completely close Word, then re-open.

If that resolved the issue, you are done. If not, we suggest re-starting your computer and testing again.

If the issue has not been resolved, you may also change the macro security center settings to Disable all macros except digitally signed macros, or enable all macros. We've described below how to do this. MathType's macro for Word is digitally signed.

Please note: When enabling all macros, please be cautious with documents from senders that you are not familiar with. Documents from unknown sources can contain malicious code.

Visual Basic Runtime Error 53

1. Click the ‘File’ menu or the ‘Office’ button in the upper left corner.
2. Click ‘Trust Center Settings’.
3. Select the radio button for ‘Disable all macros except digitally signed macros.’
4. Close Word and then re-open Word.

*If that does not resolve the issue, you may try enabling all macros.

We hope this has been helpful. As always, please let us know if you have questions about this, or if you have additional techniques that work. We'd love to hear from you.
