Hey all,

The problem is caused by the MS Outlook Business Contact Manager plugin
for word.

Open Registry (start - Run - "regedit") browse to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Word\Addins and (make sure
to backup the key before deleting) delete the
"BcmHistoryAddin.BcmConnect" folder. (aka "FriendlyName"="Business
Contact Manager for Outlook").

This fixed the problem for me. (Verified by adding the key back to the
reg and the problem came back, deleted again and the problem went
away.)

Good luck!

I had the same issues. I finally reformatted my hard drive, for the
third time since December 2008.

HOWEVER, I tried this software that promised to fix my issues "Windows
can't find file fix" and it did NOTHING - the error messages were
exactly the same after installing the software, then before installing
the software.

The company PROMISES your money back, if the software doesn't work -
but the company, Security Stronghold, is intent on keeping their fee -
no matter that I am NOT using their software, it is NOT installed on my
computer and I am obvioulsy unhappy with their program and services.

I sent them a message immediately after realizing the software did not
work, and after a week, and my 3rd request for a refund, they responded.
By then, I had installed the "Free" True Sword software, hoping it
might fix my issue, and all it did was screw up my SQL Server. THAT led
me to reformatting my hard drive...

Needless to say, because I didn't get their permission to remove their
software - I am not entitle to a refund.

The point of this story is, stick with Microsoft. They will have a fix
for their issues eventually - you just have to find it. Third party
companies promising to be "experts" in Microsoft errors are sometimes
just scams, like Security Stronghold.

Hi

Please find the solution for the following defect in office 2007 with
Vista OS. (Either Word/Excel/Outlook)

Issue: Windows cannot find 'C:\file path...\file name.xlsx'. Make sure
you typed the name correctly and then try again.
Cause: Excel files stopped being open when I double-click the file.
Solution:
1. Open Excel
2. Click on Excel Office Button which is at top-left most corner in
Vista/Office 2007
3. Click on Excel Options Button which is at right-down corner in the
popup window
4. Click on Advanced option which is at left selection panel
5. Find the General details which at the right side view
6. Unselect the checkbox (If it is selected) - Ignore other application
that use the Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)
6. Click on close

Hopes it might keeps you smile.

Thanks
Ashok Mangalore.
India.
