Default Why does the confiuration wizard run every time I start Word 2007

Why does the confiuration wizard run every time I start an Office 2007
standard application. This is insane. I thought eventually the wizards would
chill out but no luck. Every time I start Word, excel or even an 3rd party
program that uses Office 2007, the wizard comes on.

Try running a repair of Office setup. I believe it is an option when you
insert the Office 2007 CD/DVD in the drive.

I have. I have even completely removed every little hint of any kind of
office program on my computer and then cleanly installed office 2007 and it
still does the exact same thing (on both my computers-both having Vista). The
repair has no effect on this problem. Thanks though.

I have exactly the same issue. For me it appears to affect Word and
Excel, but not Outlook. I have the Enterprise 2007 edition installed.

I've seen lost of discussion about this issue elsewhere but no one
seems to have an answer. I've tired a few things buut almost at a
point now that I am considering re-installing Vista.

For info, I previously had the Standard 2007 Trail installed. I wonder
if this is related.

Has anyone been able to fix this annoying problem?

Actually, that is what my computer is doing as well: Excel, Word, etc makes
the wizard start but Outlook does not.

Hi,

If you want help with this, post your Application Event logs related to
dates/times of starting Office.

Please post them as plain text.

Hi,

Everyone who is having this problem appears to be running Office
Enterprise 2007? Is that right?

I guess it's a bit rich to call it "Enterprise" if the apps don't even
start properly

Try and use the Windows Installer Clean Up Utility and see if it will solve this issue with the configuration wizard.

It didn't do any good. Wizard still shows its ugly head.
