In order to disable the Screen Clipping in Office Applications, you will need to install the Administrative Templates for Office 2010:

You can download them from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=18968 - Office 2010 Administrative Template files (ADM, ADMX/ADML) and Office Customization Tool download
