Excel 2010: "Compile error in hidden module: ThisWorkbook"

In our case, this issue was caused by a NitroPDF 5 Add-In (but I imagine there are other add-ins causing the same issue). To remove this from loading, I moved the following file to another directory. Once removed, Excel started without the error.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\XLSTART\NitroPDF.xla

Exact same thing happened to me. I removed the nitropdf and all things worked fine. Thanks so much.

Removing nitropdf from the line as you suggested worked for me. Thanks so much.
