Default Word keeps CONFIGURING on start


In ,
Skip typed:
Does anyone know why WORD keeps CONFIGURING on start? It happens
about every third time I start WORD 2007. It does not happen with
any other OFFICE program. I ran MS diagnostics and had no problems
reported. Thanks for any help. Skip


Normally that would mean that something is being run that disturbs, usually,
one of the files in the "common" folders. e.g. trying to run two different
versions of Office or Word. See if you can figure out whether it's another
program you run that makes it reinstall. The other program might be
reinstalling something too, only doing it so fast you don't notice it.
Win98 and winXP with Word98 and XP operated exactly like that when both were
installed. And yet they could both run simulatneiously - go figger!

HTH,
