Default Can't delete project in Word, getting run-time error 53

I used to use an add-in called WordRake that helps correct grammar and so on. I stopped using it a couple of years ago.



Last week I got a new MacBook and migrated all my files and apps to it from the old MacBook. But now when I start Word, I get this error: Run-time error '53': File not found: /Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office365/User Content.localized/Add-ins.localized/WordRake/libWordRake.MacOS.Bridge.dylib (see attached screenshot).

I have to click "End" 3 times to clear the error. I can't figure out how to get rid of it. The WordRake app is long gone. When I go to the library location there's nothing there (it is empty after /Microsoft/). When I search with spotlight for WordRake there's nothing.

The only reference I can find to it is on the visual basic editor, (Word/Tools/Macros/Visual basic editor). I see a project there listed as "Project (WordRake)", see 2nd screen shot attached. But I can't open or delete it; when I try I get a message that says "Project locked."

I've spent a couple of hours with Microsoft Level 1 and then Level 2 support and they couldn't figure it out. Any ideas of how to resolve this? (Microsoft did two clean reinstalls that didn't work.)
