| | Re: Vista & Office 2007 Error: "not been installed for the current user" I'm sad to say that this very annoying problem wasn't fixed with the stated solution. I've deleted the Opa12.dat file, and still cannot run my office applications, except if i choose "Run as administrator", so what then? I have Vista x64 premium and office 2007 - help would be greatly appreciated... |

| | Re: Vista & Office 2007 Error: "not been installed for the current user" opa12.dat belongs with the Exchange Server and has nothing to do with Vista. Post your issue to the Exchange newsgroups -- Peter |

| | Re: Vista & Office 2007 Error: "not been installed for the current user" First of all, it seems to me if there where several circumstances to show up the described problem. My problem ends up with the dialog "<application> has not been installed for the current user. ...", but at heart it was a malconfiguration of the msi component registry. Some permission where set to admin only, which explains why the program can only be executed by an admin. At least the following keys are affected: Code: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\379E92CC2CB71D119A12000A9CE1A22A HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\DA42BC89BF25F5BD0AF18C3B9B1A1EE8 HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\DA42BC89BF25F5BD0BF18C3B9B1A1EE8 HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\DA42BC89BF25F5BD0CF18C3B9B1A1EE8 HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\82DE7549CF3F8CCB0DF18C3B9B1A1EE8 HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\6F949E36CB3004C50AF18C3B9B1A1EE8 HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\6F949E36CB3004C50CF18C3B9B1A1EE8 HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\7AA6F3DBF3CE139469FE63D56E7AF446 This command line resets all subkeys of "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components" to inherit parent permissions. You have to execute it as admin. setacl -ot reg -on "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components" -actn setprot -op "dacl:np;sacl:nc" -rec yes Thats it. Now the office programs run without admin rights. Kind Regard Rainer |

| | Re: Vista & Office 2007 Error: "not been installed for the current user" Thanks a lot! I had already tried everything: Repairing the Office 2007 installation, removing it and reinstalling, changing file permissions, ... but to no avail. Therefore I had my doubts about your easy solution - but it worked like a charm.  |

| | Re: Vista & Office 2007 Error: "not been installed for the currentuser" Thank you, Thank you, Thank you This has been driving me out of my mind. I think what caused it for me was installing the latest version of the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. My Office has never worked since. Thank you again, |
