Enable Javascript in Office Word When Open in Client

I got the following javascript notification when we open office word in client from SharePoint 2013 site:

Javascript is required
Javascript is disabled on your browser. Please enable Javascript and refresh this page.

We checked Javascript and it was enable in browser, but still got above notification. Are there any other settings that we need to enable?

Hi @Nguyen, Tee , To narrow down this issue, I have something to confirm with you. Can you open file in office word client via File -> Open -> Browse -> access your SharePoint library instead of opening directly in SharePoint site? Does this happen with all word files or only some? Do all users in your farm have trouble with this issue? Will change a browser give a favor to you? As per my research, it seems not to be a problem with SharePoint. It was either caused by authentication system (ADFS) or Office. Tell the issue users to reinstall office and see if it will solve this issue.
