Office documents are not on My Documents not recent since Visio 2010 Beta install

I installed Microsoft Office Visio 2010 Beta for testing.  Since I did, Office No. documents on my Start --> Documents (Classic) or Start --> my recent documents list.  No other files, such as PDF and images (.jpg and .gif) are listed, just no Excel, Word, PPT or the Visio.

I use an issued work laptop, so I can't upgrade the OS or other Office programs.

Current context:

  • Professional XP 2002 SP2
  • Microsoft Office 2003: Excel, Word, PowerPoint
  • Microsoft Office Visio 2010 beta

  • After I close my browser IE 9 and return to the office, my office programs are not available.

    After I close my browser IE 9 and return to the office, my office programs are not available. I have hover over a program and click, nothing happens for a few minutes... On the other hand, the taskbar and toolbar are all functioning normally. No other problems seem to be present.

    Thank you.

    Original title: freezing of funds

    Hello Manu,

    Thanks for the guidelines to help me solve my problem. Just to tell you that no, I have no error messages when I tried to access the office programs and Yes, I made a few changes in the pc... in the registry with Glary Utilities. That was my main concern.

    However, I tried the AUDITOR of FILE SYSTEM (CFS) and it fixed some problems.

    I also watched method 2 and did a performance using MICROSOFT FIX patch and ran that the Microsoft SECURITY SCANNER both have not reported any problems.

    Also tried method 1, no problem in safe MODE. I didn't think it was a third party program... so I decided to do a restore to an earlier date... then the problem seems to have disappeared.

    Start the pc also seems to be much faster.

    Thanks for the suggestions... I'll keep them as reference just in case...

  • You are not allowed on this computer to install Kodak printer all in one

    I have a kodal while a printer installed.  When I try to print it will only allow me to print sizes THEY have.  If click Custom to select the paper size, I really want to use it, says this feature is not available because you are not allowed to save the settings for this computer.  I went to the permission settings and everything that the printer is checked with the exception of special permissions which it does not allow me to click on.

    You might want the laptop computer and the other computer (with a crossover cable) network and then share the internet connection.  Not only will you get operational, but will give you access to the internet without having to replace the modem (as long as the laptop is present and connected).  Otherwise, you have no choice but to replace the modem and get this computer connected to the internet, then you can install your device - there is no way around that need to be connected while doing if this is required by the software.

    I hope this helps.  I'll help you set up the network, if you want to go this route.

    Good luck.

  • In windows 10, Office apps are "not responding" after I installed Thunderbird SOLVED uninstall Office, reboot, and then reinstall Office

    In no time after the installation of Thunderbird (a week after the upgrade to Windows 10), my desktop programs stopped working properly. For example, when you try to print a Word document, the program stops responding.

    The explinations or any suggeestions?

    I was able to reach the Windows support and they had me uninstall Office, restart, and then reinstall Office. This seems to have solved the problem - without doing anything with Thunderbird.

    I'm happy to use new Thunderbird SOOOOO. I could never work in Windows 8 and I hate Outlook. Phew!

  • Printers are not recognized, although visible and properly installed

    First of all; Thanks in advance for your help. Many hours spent in research without result. I am currently running Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 on an Acer Aspire X 3200-64 - bit. Recently, I ran a software (don't remember the name) which removes the "bloatware" preinstalled on computers in large areas. Be applied semi-ordinateur, I tend to exceed my capacities and I believe I also deleted a file that is necessary for the systΦme can recognize the printers... Or... Adobe associate... Or... not as likely, a question of IE. How far am I curious.

    2 different printers tried:

    HP Photosmart C3180 - all-in-One

    Dell Photo 924 all-in-one reference

    Adobe Reader X

    IE 9 (does not work on IE 8)

    Actions - comments

    Ran 'bloatware' remover - next print attempt failed (assuming that I deleted something I have not) what follows is a list of symptoms.

    -Always visible as a printer available and all administrative options are available and seem to work fine with the ready state.

    -Print the test/alignment page still works

    -When you try to print from the internet the following message is displayed: "Before you can run a task related to printers, install a printer"... printers are always shown as ready and available , but the option is grayed out

    -Adobe crashes when you attempt to print as soon as you press the printed confirmation - "Adobe has stopped working".

    -Outlook shows "print is not available. There is no printer installed. ' - although, apparently, they are installed and functional drivers

    -Ran that all printer related error utilities that I could find... spools are beautiful, updated version, correct 64-bit drivers, etc..

    -Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer - no luck

    -Borrowed from someone other printer Dell - no luck... which leads me to believe it is some part in communications hardware

    I can't understand it. My next step is reformatting the system whole darn. :) Your guidance is appreciated!

    To disable it, you can go into Photoshop preferences > General > uncheck 'See the recent workspace files when you open a file' > restart Photoshop.

    Any chance that you have used the "demo"?

    If your programs Microsoft Office came pe-installed when you purchased the computer, it is a "trial" version
    Trial version is good for 60 days or x number of use, after that it use more.

    If this is the case, you will need to purchase a full version if you want to continue using Microsoft Office programs.
    Here is the link to dwnload Microsoft Office 2010 which shows you all available versions and their prices.
    http://Office.Microsoft.com/en-us/suites/

    There is an alternative. You can install OpenOffice which is free. There are programs that work more or less like Microsoft counterparts, and they are compatible.
