Office 2013 Home & Business Edition - None of the application (Word, Powerpoint, Excel or Outlook) is opening, not even in safe mode..

Office 2013 Home & Business Edition - None of the application (Word, Powerpoint, Excel or Outlook) is opening, not even in safe mode.. I tried to run the application in compatibility mode by right clicking the excel.exe and choosing the compatibility
mode, still no success. It is installed on Windows 7 Professional SP1. All the latest updates are already installed. I have also tried Microsoft fixit, but still no Success. Please help!! 

I'm so sorry that I forgot the Office programs even not open in safe mode and provide useless information in my last reply.
The problem persists when we perform a Windows clean boot, right?
Were the Office programs suddenly not working? Or it just can’t be open after you install it? Did you get any error message?
If you haven’t try a repair of your Office installation, we can try it to check the result:

In addition, try to use Event Viewer to see if we can get some useful error log about this problem. See:

  • TS1717 I just installed the newest version of iTunes and it will not open, not even in safe mode. Anyone have any ideas?

    Hey guys,
    My dad just got a new laptop that should be beyond capable of running iTunes. He installed it, tried to run it and it wouldn't open. I uninstalled it, re-downloaded it and tried to run it and it's a no go for me as well. Tried to run a repair and nothing. Tried to open it in safe mode and nothing. Does anyone have any ideas what might be gumming it up? His computer has a 1.5 gig Quad core, 4 Gig of Ram, is running on 64bit Windows 7 that is fully updated as of this morning and iTunes is doing jack squat Please help!

    FYI the sloution which are mentioned above are copied from below link and I just pasted the Information which were required. I am sorry as IT was not aware that the website belong to any of community participants and also I didn't new that copying a required information from a different website is not allowed and we have to write everything on our own or only post the thing that we have researched and if that is the case then I think most of us is in wrong place, because my intention is not to take credit here I am just trying to contribute my time in helping those users where techies like you are not reached.

  • I updated to FF 7.0.1 and now neither FF nor the profile manager will open, not even in safe mode. Did reinstall, then clean reinstall, still no help.

    FF automatically updated to v7. Since then, it won't open. I've tried opening it with the taskmanager open, and firefox.exe appears under processes for maybe 2 seconds, then disappears. I did a reinstall, then a clean reinstall (after copying my profiles folder to a flash drive). Still no luck. Won't open in safe mode, won't open Profiles Manager. I tried to use my son's FF under his login, and it updated and also refuses to work. This is Windows XP.

    Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

  • TS1389 Itunes  on W7 - I´m unable to authorise my purchases download, and the SC itunes file wouldn´t be deleted not even in safe mode.

    I´m unable to authorise my purchases download from itunes store, and the SC itunes file wouldn´t be deleted (prompts not allowed) , even in safe mode. Does anyone experienced the same error? Any solution other than posted? Thanks.

    Just in case we're dealing with file/disk damage here, try running a disk check over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you delete the SCInfo folder now?

  • How do I BLOCK access to ONEDRIVE that come with Office 2013 Home & Business

    Hi,
    We can disable OneDrive in Office with Group Policy.
    First, please download Office 2013 Administrative Template files (ADMX/ADML) from this link below:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35554
    Then, press Win + R, type "gpedit.msc" in the blank box, press Enter.
    The settings can be found under User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Microsoft Office 2013 -> Miscellaneous. Select the “Block signing into Office” option in the list of settings. In the Properties window, click “Enable” and select
    the option “None Allowed.” Save the settings and open Word to check, there should be no OneDrive option for the user.

  • Use one account or multiple for 10 domain users of Office 2013 Home & Business

    I have 10 seats of the retail version of Office Home & Business 2013 for use in a domain environment. Windows 7 Pro 64, Server 2008R2 environment. No exchange. Blank slate.
    Should I install all with the same account for ease of management, or setup a new MS Live account for each user? Can I do either, and what are the advantages to each?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    Both are ok, but neither is really good.
    In your scenario, I suggest you use Office 365 to manage all these, which is more recommended:

  • Office 2013 Home & Student Edition - IRM (?)

    Hi,
    I do want to know if I'm able to set up the IRM protection to my (Word, Excel, PP) documents with the Home & Student edition of the Office 2013 and If a person doesn't have any permission can he/she see the content of it ? (and can he edit it, or just
    with my permission?)
    Thank you in advance

    Hi VKevvina,
    Information Rights Management (IRM) is a persistent file-level technology from Microsoft. It uses permissions and authorization to help prevent sensitive information from being printed, forwarded, or copied by unauthorized people. After permission for a
    document or message is restricted by using this technology, the usage restrictions travel with the document or email message as part of the contents of the file.
    More detail information about IRM in Office 2013:

  • Problem Saving or Opening Documents with Office 2013 Home & Business

    Hello there,
    as the title says, I'm running into a problem when trying to save or open Documents in Word,Excel,etc. (all Office Programs)
    I get the message "Microsoft Word stopped working". Or Excel, Powerpoint...
    I already tried to deinstall and used the Office-FixIt-Tool to clean the PC.
    I also updated the driver for my Graphic-Card, installed the newest Windows-Updates and checked if it is caused by an Add-In.
    None of this helped. The Problem still exists when starting in Safe-Mode.

    Hello George,
    No, it has never worked.
    For testing I installed Office 2010 and this worked fine.
    But as I said, all versions had been deinstalled before reinstalling Office 2013 (even cleaned up with the FixIt-Tool).

  • [Forum FAQ] Why does Office 2013 cost more network flow when the application starts by default?

    Recently, we’ve heard that our customers encounter high network traffic since they large-scalely deploy Office 365/2013 within the domain/site. Does this behavior relate to the new Office? Or does Office 365/2013 cost more network resources in this case?
    To troubleshoot this, we consider to analyze what happened during the process by Network Monitor tool. 
    Start a new capture first and launch Office Word 2013, get the following things as the screenshots:
    According to the information above,
    in addition to the network authentication flow, we could notice that the Word.exe would download a lot of PNG files from the link “/en-us/templates”. What about those PNG files?
    Let us try to directly visit them via IE:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/TM103463086.png?ts=AOLhIeGIzwg
    Beyond question, they are the thumbnails of the Office template which are downloaded while the Office application starts by default.

    In
    some certain circumstances,
    we might disable it by Office option or Group policy.
    Disable Start Screen by Office 2103 UI:
    Open Office 2013 application, go to File in Ribbon > Options tab > General page > under the section of Start Screen options, uncheck the options "Show the
    Start screen when this application starts"
    Disable Start Screen by Registry key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\General
    DisableBootToOfficeStart (DWORD): set the value
    to 1
    Disable Start Screen by Group Policy:
    Disable Start Screen by OCT:

  • After installing Win7 x32 SP1 I can not start Firefox. Not even in safe mode. I uninstalled Firefox and re-installed the program. Won't start.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    Retail editions of Office can't be used on RDS/TS - only Volume Licensing editions can be used.

    5. Can I install a retail or OEM version of Microsoft Office on a network server?
    Microsoft Office retail (full packaged product) and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) products released in 2007 or later

    With Office 2013 Home and Business Medialess bought through a retail channel (I believe formerly called Product Key Card) boxes, if you have an invoice and photocopy of the product key card. Is this enough for Proof of Ownership?

  • Office 2013 Home and Business License Compatability with Windows Server 2012 R2

    Are there any license issues with installing Office 2013 Home and Business on Server 2012 R2 operating system? 
    I am having inconsistent issues installing this software on a server running this operating system.  The Office software is not being acccesed by client workstations.  Its a stand alone software installation for the server.  Are there any
    special installation procedures I must follow or software registration procedures I must follow?
    Microsoft website states Office 2013 Home and Business is compatible with Server 2012 but doesnt include the an R2 version reference.

    Hi,
    Please note only Volume Licensing editions of Office may be used on RDS host server. Since Home and Business is a Retail edition, it's not suitable/permitted if you are using RDS.

  • WSUS updates not applying to Office 2013 Home and Business OEM version

    Hi
    For some reason I cannot get WSUS updates to automatically install on clients running Office 2013 Home and Business OEM version.
    For example
    If user opens any of the office 2013 apps e.g. Outlook , word etc, it prompts a message at the top under the ribbon toolbar; UPDATE NOW.
    All other updates for OS are downloading and installing just fine from our WSUS server.
    What could this be?
    I dont have this issue with clients running office 2003

    First thing you need to do is be absolutely certain which edition of Office you have installed.
    There are five editions of "Office 365" and these days, almost anything that is "OEM" is almost certainly Office 365:
    Office 365 Home
    Office 365 Personal
    Office 365 Small Business
    Office 365 Small Business Premium
    Office 365 Midsize Business
    Office 365 ships with an activation code for an online management account, and authorizes the installation of the software on up to five devices. Office 365 is updated via the WEB .. ONLY.
    In addition there are three editions of Office 2013:
    Office Home & Student
    Office Home & Business
    Office Professional
    If you have one of these three editions, you should also have a DVD and a Product Activation Code for the SINGLE-PC installation which is licensed for these editions provided by the vendor of your computers. Office 2013 can be updated using WSUS.
    Since you're getting a prompt IN THE APPLICATION to "Update Now", I believe you're looking at instances of Office 365, not Office 2013. Office 2013 (desktop) does not provide in-product prompts for updates/upgrades.
