Solve : ms word frontpage update?

Answer»

I downloaded a MS front page update along with other standard ms UPDATES and now when I try to open ANY word program, I'm prompted to install original MICROSOFT CD to continue. I don't have the original CD!! I acquired laptop used......Any help? PLEASE....All of my word programs are disabled and I can't survive with out my work. THANKS for any help.Did these updates come via Windows Automatic Updates or did you go directly to Microsoft's website and manually initiate them? Quote from: cristopher on May 13, 2009, 11:37:00 PM

All of my word programs are disabled ...
You MEAN Word files, not "word programs", don't you? Word is one program, or part of a larger program (MS Office). Can you open Word? Do other Office components (Excel, PowerPoint, etc.) work?

You may have a serious software license issue here. You may not have a valid software license for MS Office. How do you know someone else isn't using the same edition of Office that's INSTALLED on your computer? Any time you buy a used computer and do not get the original CD for software that's installed on it, you should be suspicious of the legitimacy of the license for that software.

You may need to buy a legitimate copy of Office. Quote from: soybean on May 14, 2009, 07:47:17 AM
