HELP! Need to uninstall all microsoft apps from macbook pro

I'm trying to uninstall all Microsoft office applications for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, teams, for old [2013, 2019, 2020, ect] installed student teacher office and 365 trials. I recently purchased Microsoft office standalone and tried to use it on my MacBook Pro. It is a one user application and I am fine with that. The problem I'm having is it will not allow me to open existing word documents without a spinning beach ball, requiring force quit, and error report. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I do have a new microsoft office product that I instaalled. Okay with deleting everything and restarting over by reinstalling it afterwards. It is registered on my microsoft profile and have the product key to reinstall it.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 15.3
