At Startup, Visio opens all INSTALL files for stored programs
Had this problem with Visio2010 with Vista and thought it was me. Now system
upgraded to Win7. Upgrade to Visio2007. Worked fine first time opened it. Second time it searched system and started executing ALL of the setup files stored on drives. Programs I haven't used in years. Only way to stop it is through Task Manager. Now I have a critical diagram in Visio and no way to finish it. Any ideas on what is causing???? |

Open the registry editor: Look at path HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\13.0\V isio\Application and then check key "StartUpPath". Visio will run every executable file it can find under this path. Make sure it isn't set to a very high level path. -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd.
