Not been installed for current user
Bobby Gene 11/10/2008 9:33:01 PM
I recently bought a new PC with Vista 64-bit. I couldn't get my Office
Professional 2007 programs to open, after a configuration stand by, the error
window said "Microsoft Office (program) has not been installed for current
user. Please run setup to install the application". Many others has the same
problem with no good answers. I found the answer! Office is located in the
"Programs(x86) of the "computer". Open "Office12". Find the .exe for each
program, right click "properties". Under compatability tab, click "Show
settings for all users",check the box to "run as administrator", apply and
ok; then, in the security tab, click "Edit...". Click on each user (and
group) name and make sure there is a check in "Allow" "Full Control". When
opened Exel for the first time, it asked for the PID. I entered mine and it
worked. All other programs worked after setting up for first time.

Thank you. It worked and I now can use Office again. I have one problem
remaining. Each time I start an Office application, it goes through the
configuration process which requires me to give permission. After that it is
fine. Any ideas on how to change this? It also screwed up my syncing of my
Iphone with Outlook.

When I checked the box "run as administrator" after clicking on the button
Show settings for all users", under the compatability tab; it quit asking me
for admistrator privilages.

On the Iphone with Outlook issue; In replacing my old Notebook, I also
replace my Palm handheld with an HP handheld (bear in mind, it's not a
smartphone) because I never got my Palm to sync right. I copied all my Palm
data to the proper folder for my HP handheld and had problems. I then set up
my handheld for a different user name and tried syncing from my Outlook to
the new user name and it worked. Windows handheld sync is new to me, and I am
still working on updating the original sync. When I figure that one out, it
should work for you, too. I will reply to this thread so you know where to
go, but I will start a new thread since is a different issue.

Thanks. I'll try that again. And I'll hope to hear from you on the syncing
issue. I'll share anything I learn as well.

All your tips worked and I can now use office. But I had to make the changes
to each product. Changing just one didn't work. But I still have the same
problem Jim. Everytime I start each products it goes through a quick set up
and asks for permission. It works after that but very annoying.

RE: Not been installed for current user
Bobby Gene 11/24/2008 5:29:02 PM
MarkC, you must have skipped the part in each .exe to click the compatibility
tab and put a check mark in the "Run as administrator" box.

RE: Not been installed for current user
BobbyGene 11/30/2008 9:25:00 AM
MarkC; Bob... got it right. In each of your programs you need to check the
box run as administrator in the compatibility tab. jimflinch: try to sync the
smartphone with the firewall disabled. just like my msn problem, onecare
wasn't asking me if i wanted to allow the connection.

My handheld is in sync! I shut down the OneCare firewall, installed the
handheld with the WMDC and Sync Center, manually added the two to the OneCare
firewall configuration, and got in sync. And I have my Bluetooth exchange
back also. Now my only problem is installing OneNote to the handheld. I can
add files which I can access through the "files explorer" as OneNote, but the
handheld doesn't show OneNote as an installed program. On my PC, under
Tools>Options>OneNote Mobile; the "install OneNote Moblie" button is gray and
won't activate. And in the WMDC, OneNote is listed as an option to check in
the box, but I can't add a check.

Bobby,

You seem to be the only person that has tackled this "current user" problem
with any results. However, I am running XP sp3. I tried your fix, but in XP
these controls are listed under Security, not Compatibility. I changed
everything to "Full control" to no avail. I still get the message "not been
installed...." and the application shuts down. Could you be of anymore
assistance for the XP solution to the Office 2007 issue.

RE: Not been installed for current user
BobbyGene 12/11/2008 8:34:01 AM
I ran XP while Vista was still in the debugging stage, until about a year
ago; but at the time XP didn't have the SP3 yet, I ran SP2. I never had the
problem in XP. We have been talking about a Vista 64-bit problem up to this
point. But, if I remember correctly in XP, there is a "Compatibility mode";
I'm not sure now, but I think it was in the individual program "properties"
command. I do know, in XP, nobody advises a common "Run as Administrator",
and any time I had to run as administrator, I did it from the "Run" in the
start menu. I'm sorry I can't be of any more assistance to you.

RE: Not been installed for current user
BobbyGene 12/11/2008 8:48:14 AM
I don't know how much you have saved or backed up for your programs; but,
after numerous attempts to uninstall/install the WMDC (which is part of Vista
start up and you really can't uninstall it, it just re-appears) and Sync
Center, I get an error message I already have a newer version of WMDC (this
is when trying to install the newest 6.1 version from the website). What I
did to get my HP iPAQ Handheld PC to sync was end the partnerships in
everything dealing with Mobile Sync, deleting all the handheld device names,
performed a hard reset on the handheld, and started over again with the
install of the handheld. This worked for me except for OneNote Mobile. In my
Tool>Options of the Desktop version, the "Install OneNote Mobile" button
stays gray; and in the WMDC, the OneNote Mobile option is there (with icon),
but the box won't check. Previous OneNote files will open, but I can't do
anything with them except delete them. But, when I want OneNote files on my
handheld, I "Send to" as an Office Word from the OneNote, and use that file
in the Word Mobile. A lot of work involved, but until Microsoft comes up with
a fix, I'll deal with it.

Same problem with me with Office 2007 on Vista ultimate x86. Only
problem for me is that the checkboxes for "run as administrator" are
greyed out!!! The problem occurred after installing a slew of Office
2007 updates, including SP1. I'm trying to uninstall all the updates
and see if that fixes the problem
