Default fields/macro broke on my due now thesis


I have a word 2010 (win7) docx of my almost due PHD thesis that has automatic fields for the updating the 'table of contents' and 'figures' where I can click on each block ( they gray) and right click on update field , which allows it to update text and and page numbers. It has worked well for over a 3 years. I used a half working macro ( for zotero) and it broke everything. I got rid of that macro now. But I still see this {TOC \h \z \c ""figure"} instead of the fiel text. It seems to be all there and I can click toggle field codes to see the correct info ( one at a time), but it always defaults to the code and update field does not work well. BUT ONLY ON THIS VERSION OF WORD ON MY DESKTOP where I ran the bad macro. I use the exact same docx file ( on dropbox) and it works fines on my word 2012 on my laptop. So this is specific my desktop word 2010, not the thesis docx file. Can anyone suggest what I busted on this desktop version of Word that makes these fields in the file not work correctly. I repaired thsi version of Word, I removed normal.dotm, then I replace normal.dotm with the one from my laptop and 3 other things but nothing seems to fix the problem. Any suggestions are appreciated.
