If there isn’t a newer version or if you don’t need to use the add-in you can leave it unchecked or remove it from your PC. We recommend you visit the company website for the add-in to check for an updated version you can install. If the Office app starts, there’s a problem with the add-in you unchecked.

Restart the application (not in Safe Mode this time). Uncheck these add-ins first if they are in your list: Abbyy FineReader, PowerWord and Dragon Naturally Speaking. Is this change by design, and is there some registry change or other means by which I can re-enable this dialog? The ideal answer contains a reference to an official Microsoft source this isn't meant to be an opinion-based question.Note: Some older add-ins are known to cause problems.

Regardless, I have not been able to find an official source on this change.

However, in Windows 10, I don't typically see this dialog-the app simply closes and the Windows Error Reporting service ( WerFault.exe) reports the crash. In earlier versions of Windows, when an app crashes, I would get a dialog that says " has stopped working".
