Office 2010 Program Paths?

[TheUnseen]

Where are the Office programs' exe files found? I cannot find them in 2010?
I check the Office program shortcuts and they look like this:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\Virtualization Handler\CVH.EXE" "Microsoft Excel 2010 9014006204090000"

Which doesn't work when I insert that in "add" to the programs in Setpoint (Logitech's software for VX Revolution mouse)

Have a look in C\Program files\Microsoft Office

Word: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\WINWORD.EXE
Access: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\MSACCESS.EXE
Excel: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE
Publisher: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\MSPUB.EXE

office 2010 exe locations

None of the responses I can find on this forum have shown me the correct path to the office2010 executables. I have looked in c:\program files\microsoft office\office14 and there are no executables there. Looking at properties in the start menu shows the target as microsoft office single image 2010. what on earth is that?

I've checked C:\Windows\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office 14 and everything is where it should be.



Are you using MS Office 32-bit or MS Office 64-bit and where did you get it from?

You can also use the Task Manager "Image Path Name" column to see where the executable is.

open the properties on the shortcuts and click open file location.though i suspect you may have already tried this.

It's interesting the properties for Office 2010 64bit are quite different (for me)...

Boohbah's link is for Office 2007 so it will look different.

I have Office 2010 and the Properties screenshot you posted is exactly the same as my Properties window.

 

[boohbah]

it looks the same on my desktop too, previous post was from wifes lappy.
it seems the open file location is greyed out in office 2010 x64.

I am using the 64 bit version and I bought if from Microsoft. I checked Program Files\MIcrosoft Office\Office14 and there are no executables in that folder. Did you mean to put Windows in the path you put in your response because that path does not exist on my computer?

I was finally able to find the executables in the program by opening the file location shown for the winword process in task manager. They are in my program files(x86)\microsoft office\office14 folder

 

[boohbah]

ok as you are using x64 , the ms office executables are located in the program files x86
path is
c: /programme files x86 /microsoft office/office 14
edit
hahaha bloody typical. you found it whilst i was looking and posting.

Using Task Manager is what i tried to point out in Post #6.

You can also use the Task Manager "Image Path Name" column to see where the executable is.

As the .exe files are located in Program Files (x86) it means you have installed the 32-bit version of MS Office 2010.

The 64-bit version is located under Program Files.

The disc has both the 32-bit version and the 64-bit version of Office on it.

I quoted that path because you said you had installed the 64-bit version when in fact you've installed the 32-bit version.

As I explained in my previous post, the default path for the 32-bit version is under Program Files (x86) and for the 64-bit version it's Program Files.
