Guest tim Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 The problem I have is that every time I try to run an Office app it kicks off Windows Installer and tries to re-install the component of Office I am trying to run. This inevitably fails because it never prompts me to run as admin, even though I am logged in as an administator, with the error, "Microsoft Office [app] has not been installed for the current user. Please run setup to install the application." I click [OK] and the app closes. Workarounds I have found for this problem are to disable UAC, check the "Run as Administrator" box in the file properties of the executeable, and right click the executeable and select "Run as Administrator". Does anyone else have this problem? If anyone knows how to fix this please post it here. Thanks!!! Quote

Guest Peter Foldes Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 And he will get the same answer there also. Office Enterprise does not belong to any of the newsgroups for fixing issues. It is either purchased through a Company ,Educational Institution or Armed Forces and through their Home Program which has their own Help and Support that is Free of charge by calling a given phone number . If it is free of charge and if issues are asked about it in these newsgroups then most likely it is a pirated version -- Peter Please Reply to Newsgroup for the benefit of others Requests for assistance by email can not and will not be acknowledged.

I get free technical support from a number of vendors for various software and hardware that I own, but am just as likely (if not more) to ask in a public forum for help as I am to endure what I get for "free". Does that mean I am pirating it? Of course not. So rather than judging him, since he came to a newsgroup for help I pointed him to a more appropriate newsgroup. As far as I know, there is no restriction for the microsoft.public.office. groups that prevents answering questions about Enterprise versions. -- Zaphod Arthur: All my life I've had this strange feeling that there's something big and sinister going on in the world.
