right click CRASH!!!! Office 2004

[Msuleimankhan]

Whenever I right-click I get a crash in word and any other office
application.

If I go into another users' account I can right click no problems, but
in my main account doing so causes the app to crash.

I'm wondering if there are plugins for office that are only installed
per user that are causing this to happen. I really don't want to have
to reinstall everything to isolate the problem. If I could get some
assistance that would be great.

Thanks.

What version of Word and operating system, please?

By "any other application", does that mean with Word open?

Check your ~/Library/InputManagers folder. Alternately, check your
~/Library/Contextual Menu Items folder. By process of elimination you should
be able to remove items from these folders to eliminate the crash when
right-clicking in Office. My guess is that you have something installed in
the InputManagers folder for your main account which is causing problems
with Office.

Fixed! The problem was the PicturePropPro contextual menu plugin. It's
a shame but I'm so happy to have fixed it. Thanks Caleb!
