Thanks

The office uninstall does not remove this directory and whatever is corrupt could still be in it.

When they log back in it will create another new profile directory. The reason for renaming is that if that does not fix the problem then you can log them off, delete the new profile directory and then rename the old one back so that they don’t lose any settings.

I will try to update it see if that makes a difference.
I will post back and let you know if that works, the user will be back in the office next Thursday so it will take some time for me to post back.

Thank you guys for you input, if you think of anything else please let me know.

Do they have the feature of windows where they hover over an icon and click once to open the file or program?.
