Yes. If you deselect it, you give Word permission to save Normal.dot without
asking you. See €śWord prompts me to save changes to the Normal.dot template€ť

The discussion you referenced doesn't seem to help with version 2007. I did
look at my Word startup folder and I see nothing in it. This error message
started popping up recently and now comes up every time I exit a document. Do
you know of any fix? Thanks.
