After updates earlier this month (circa June 10-12) a user keeps getting a pop-up message from her Office 365 Word program:
“Microsoft Word isn’t your default program for viewing and editing documents.
Do you want to select the file types that Word should open?”
I have:
– unchecked the option for Word to check if it’s the default (Options > General).
– run WINWORD.EXE /r that supposed re-registers Word.
– used the Default Apps and Choose a default app for each type of file
– used the “Open with…” context menu function to select Word as default
– used the Microsoft completely-uninstall-all-office Support and Recovery Assistant, then reinstalled Office 365.
If I log in and run Word under my profile, I don’t experience the same problem, so creating a new profile for the user is likely going to be my next step, but I was hoping someone might have encountered -and resolved- this issue without resorting to creating a new profile for the user.
Has anyone come across this before? Or, heard that others are also experiencing this after recent Windows/Office upgrades?
