UAC in Vista has to be turned off to run MS Office
lciccar222 4/20/2007 3:32:03 PM
I installed MS Office 2007 Enterprise edition on a new computer with Vista
Ultimate 64 bit edition. It works fine if UAC is turned off but as soon as I
turn it back on and start any "office" program it goes into a set up. Then
it tells me that "MS Office has not been installed for the current user.
Please run setup to install application." I have deleted users, added users
- all have administrative rights. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. This
version of office works fine on an "XP" machine. I also have uninstalled
and reinstalled. I also installed Office 2003, it worked fine. Then
upgraded to 2007 and had the same problems.

Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated.

Have you installed it while UAC is on?
