I've really spoiled ON. I think I know how I did it and what the problem is
now, but I wonder how to fix it.
I copied the folder holding my files to another location as backup.
Forgetting it was a backup I opened ON by clicking on a file there and made
changes or added data. Then, I think, ON changed the location of its files
to the backup location. Over time I did the same thing again and now ON is
confused about where its files are located and it opens up with duplicate
files in the program, i.e. 2 Personal Notebooks with duplicate files in
each, some up to date and others out of date. The shortcut to ON on my
desktop and on the Start menu don't work and I can only go to "All Programs"
in the Start menu to open ON (or click on a file in "Computer").
Can anyone suggest how to repair this problem? Should I update all files and
then delete the backup folder? Will that restore ON to open up only one set
of files, and should my shortcuts work again? Because of the confusion will
I have to remove and reinstall Office?
Thanks. Niall
