start PPT get "Configuring Microsoft office professional plus"
Win 7 64 bit / Office 2013 64 bit from MSDN
Every time I launch Powerpoint a box comes up stating, " Configuring Microsoft office professional plus 2013"
When I start powerpoint it starts to open the powerpoint, then configuring screen comes up for a few minutes, it completes and then closes powerpoint.
This only happens with Powerpoint, Word and Excel work fine.
I had Office 2003 installed and that was uninstalled before installing office 2013
I originally installed Office 2013 from MSDN on 8/13/13 and it has worked without problem for the last year. Last week 8/11/14, with no changes that I am aware of to the system, Powerpoint started with the configuring problem. I did some web searches and started attempting fixes I found.
- I uninstalled Office 2013 through the Control Panel
- Reinstalled Office 2013, started powerpoint same problem
- I uninstalled Office 2013 through the Control Panel
- Cleaned every piece of Office seen in control panel uninstall programs using: MicrosoftFixit.ProgramInstallUninstall.MATSKB.Run.exe
- reinstalled Office 2013 Started powerpoint same problem
- Tried the registry edits with the same problem
- reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
- reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
- reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Word\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
- Uninstalled Office, cleaned up, reinstalled office, Started powerpoint in safe mode same problem
- Tried office repair option, restarted PC, same problem
- Uninstalled Office, cleaned up, reinstalled office.
- Tried run secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose
