Hi Roomies,
I've just updated to Jave 6.18 on Vista Business so I can run a web site I
need to use that requires this package.
However, I've noted that my MS Office 2007 developed a issue immediately
after the install, with both Office Outlook and Word shortcuts on my desktop
failing.
I then looked at the "Programs Folder" on the "Start Bar" to see if it was
just the desktop icons not working ...only to see that all the "MS Office
2007" Icon in the "Start" menus had disappeared. The MS Office 2007programs
would not activate from those blanked out (but named) locations either.
That said, the Office Outlook icon pinned to the "Quick Start" bar still did
exist and that icon was fully functional and Outlook did activate from it,
but had some minor run issues and was far from being a stable initiation of
the program.
To resolve the conflict ... I used "Restore Point"and reverting to a date
before the installation of Java 6.18. After doing that, I reinstalled a Java
6.18 a 2nd time ...only to have exactly the same thing happen all over
again. Thereafter, I used "Restore"again and have not attempted to reinstall
a 3rd time as yet.
It get worse.
After posting the above issue on "Sun Forum", I hope I may get some
feedback. 24 hrs on and after installing "Google Earth (+Chrome)", I saw that
both the "Restored" Outlook & Work 2007 icon had once more disappeared from
my desktop ...and the "MS Office 2007" Icon in the "Start" menus had
disappeared once more and again no MS Office 2007programs would activate from
those locations once more.
Again, for a 3rd time, I used "Restore Point"and reverting to a date before
the installation of the "Google Earth & Chrome"package.
It has become clear to me that I have an issue with installing any package
and for what ever reason, after any install, MS Office 2007 is conflicted by
those attempted instalations.
Could some let me know if there is:
1.) A know issue? ....or
2.) ...Has anyone else come across these sorts of conflict before please?
...and
3.) Can you recommend a fix for them?
Thank you.
