| | Error 1606. Could not access network location %APPDATA%\. Error 1606. Could not access network location %APPDATA%\. That is the message I received when I tried to install Microsoft Office 2010. I went to their website and used the Fixit tool, but it did not work. Any ideas?  |

| | More info would help. Are you installing MS Office over the network? What type of setup is that (disc, exe, msi, etc)? Is installation being done under Administrator privileges? |

Could not access network location %APPDATA%” The problem is potentially a result of an inconsistent/incorrect environmental variable (%AppData%). Solution: 1. Open the Registry editor 2. Navigate to the following registry keys HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders 3. The correct and default value for AppData should be: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming 4. Close the Registry editor, and try again Windows Update again. (A reboot should not be required.) 5. If the problem persists, repeat the steps 2 through 4 with the following registry keys: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders\ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders\ Registry - Backup and Restore |

| | Thanks I see that you are a "Young Pensoner"! Today at 82 I feel like an old pensoner! I was into computers before they were called "Computers"! My first work comouter was a PDP 8E. made by Digital Equipment Co. It had punched tape input & output. No Monitor, no keyboard & no mouse. The boot loader was entered with eight toggle switches. My first Home computer was a Radio Shack TRS 80 (Trash 80). It had 2 - 5 1/4" floppy drives. See Pic. This is the first time I have admitted defeat by a computer problem!! I must really be getting old! Tully |

| | Tully Did you say "Tinkle The Keyboard" or "Tinkle ON the keyboard"? I lost my password to my account. I went through the "NewPassword" routine & kept sending me those "Sqiggles" to type in. They had to send me about 6 before I rceived one that I could decipher!! After going through that I think I gained a year & now am83!  I think I finally got rid of the 1606 error by buying Office 2010. I don't like it because it has too many "Features" I won't use & didn't want. Tully |
