I think I remember something like that a long time ago. The problem went away when the programs were installed with an admin account. Then the user logged on to the computer and no configuring message.

It might work, it might not. But its an easy test/fix. The FixIt itself (I already ran it to check) does not specify a specific version of Office. To perform a tradition Office "repair", you would need to do that via Programs and Features control panel. Perform a change of the install, and then choose to repair it. If you want to go the route of preventing product re-registrations: * reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\<build.#>\Word\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1 * reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\<build.#>\Excel\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1 * reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\<build.#>\Access\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1 * reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\<build.#>\Powerpoint\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1 * reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\<build.#>\Outlook\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1 IIRC, the build number is 15.0 for Office 2013. -- Espi On Mon, Sep 21, 2015 at 12:39 PM, J- P <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: Does this apply to 2013, the article only says 2010 ? _____ From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2015 12:12:34 -0700 Subject: Re: [NTSysADM] Multiple office installs To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Have you tried fixing the install? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2528748 -- Espi On Mon, Sep 21, 2015 at 11:41 AM, J- P <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: Hi all, The site has a mix of outlook 2010, access runtime 2010, and now office 2013 Due to a custom access fe they need to stay on outlook 2010, however now whenever word is launched you get the "please wait while office is configured..." likewise when the Access runtime is launched the same occurs. I recall if you had multiple versions of WORD there is a reg hack to prevent this from occurring, (HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1) But these pc's do not have multiple word version, does anyone if these hacks can be applied to Access runtime? Or provide another work around? tia
