I'm on Mac OS 12.4 on MacBook Air, and now I get missing Adobe error message when I open Word or Excel file. It reads:
run-time error '53':
File not found:/Library/Application Support/ADobe/MACPDFM/MacPDFM.framework/Versions/A/MacPDFM
I tried the fix described previously going to WORD/Tools/Templates and click on linkCreation.dotm but I am not able to delete it as the - box is not highlighted.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks

The error re-occurred on my MacBook with Monterey 12.6 recently after an Office update.
All I had to do.
Open Terminal Application, type "rm ~/Library/Group\ Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User\ Content.localized/Startup.localized/Word/linkCreation.dotm" , hit enter.
Problem gone.
Cheers

someone posted this suggestion for resolving a run time error 53 message but did not say how to get to this resolve. can someone help please.
Someone previously posted the magic recepie: rm ~/Library/Group\ Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User\ Content.localized/Startup.localized/Word/linkCreation.dotm
Two thoughts from someone who hasn't got this error, so I can't say for certain if either will work.

Yes, that worked for me too. Always a bit hesitant to delete stuff when I don't know it's purpose. I moved to the desk top in case i needed to replace it. Restarted MS Word, open recent, error message gone.
Now I need the solution for MS Excel.
Hi, I tried that but when i go to WORD/Tools/Templates and click on linkCreation.dotm but I am not able to delete it as the - box is not highlighted. Then I tried the fix for that as is mentioned below, copying the text stated there and paste it in terminal. Follwed bij ls. But nothing...?
Any other suggestions?

Sorry, not really. Deleting the respective file in the Powerpoint folder next to the Word folder causes other errors.
Actually, I never ever use Powerpoint because there are better alternatives and ways to make presentations, but I know this doesn't help…

Here is the best fix for this issue that explains exactly what to do and seems to be reliable no matter which version of the OS you are running. Hope this helps!
^I've been having the same issue for a couple days now. Not sure what's going on.
For me it help to remove the ~/Library/Group\ Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User\ Content.localized/Startup.localized/Word/linkCreation.dotm for the moment

Has anyone found a solution to this issue?
follow the path and remove it directly from the hard drive. worked for me.
I cannot locate this file on my MacBook Air (OS 12.5 Monterey). Where can I find it ?
I can't find it either! On MacBook Air (OS 12.4).
How do you even do this? "remove the ~/Library/Group\ Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User\ Content.localized/Startup.localized/Word/linkCreation.dotm"
I see the questions to about fixing the Run Time error 53 but i don't see the answers. Can anyone please help--what am I missing?
Thank you,
