    Both office versions work well but hitting in file explorer at a document file XLSX and PPTX it will start version Excel or Powerpoint 2007, at DOCX it will start Word 2010. If I try to change the file association nothing happens. Also there are no versions listet. Windows XP (!) tells me that the file is associated with (f. e.) "Microsoft Office Excel". I did not find the point to tell the system that this should be the executable from Office14 folder.

    Has somebody an idea which registry entry I must change for this?

    Thanks

    hy detlef,

    i think the following key could it be:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xlsx

    maybe my file association could help. it opens Excel 2010

     

     

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xlsx]
    "Content Type"="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet"
    @="Excel.Sheet.12"
    "PerceivedType"="document"

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xlsx\Excel.Sheet.12]

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xlsx\Excel.Sheet.12\ShellNew]
    "FileName"="excel12.xlsx"

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xlsx\PersistentHandler]
    @="{4887767F-7ADC-4983-B576-88FB643D6F79}"

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xlsx\ShellEx]

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xlsx\ShellEx\PropertyHandler]
    @="{993BE281-6695-4BA5-8A2A-7AACBFAAB69E}"

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xlsx\ShellEx\{8895b1c6-b41f-4c1c-a562-0d564250836f}]
    @="{00020827-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}"

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xlsx\ShellEx\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}]
    @="{C41662BB-1FA0-4CE0-8DC5-9B7F8279FF97}"

     

     

    before you do this, please export your old key from your registry. than you wont have trouble to restore

     

    best regards

    Hi George,

    thanks for your help. This did not help. Before I posted here I screwed in the registry a lot. But sorry I don't remember if it were exact the keys you wrote. But after changing 10 keys or so without success I gave up. Then by this forum I got remembered for the Repair Installation, it was right.
