Setting Office 2013 on Windows 8x in Pre-Production Mode

Hello
We are in the process of evaluating ADRMS for protecting documents. Currently, I have ADRMS running on a Windows Server 2012 x64. I have 2 other machines which talk to this - one with Office 2013 installed on a windows 8.1 set in production mode and another
similar machine having  a custom program based on ADRMS SDK 2.1 APIs. 
How can I set the server running ADRMS as well as Office 2013 in pre-production mode? If there are any documents on this, can this be shared or pointed to please
Thanks
SN

Hello,
Does anyone know how to do this or is this done differently?
This is what I want to test to start with - I have a document (docx) and I have protected it using ADRMS SDK2.1 based custom client application. I want to test this protected document by opening using Office 2013 and see if the permissions I set are working.
The custom application is installed on a machine (8.1, set to pre-prod by setting MSIPC & uDRM \Hierarchy to 1)  connecting to a server (Win 2012, set in pre-prod by setting DRMS\Hierarchy to 1) with both ADRMS & ADDS installed in it. For some
reason the client works even with uDRM/Hierarchy set to 0, so not sure what is the relevance of uDRM. 
I have the Office 2013 installed on a Windows 8.1 different from the above 2 machines and connected to the above domain. But I am unable to open the document protected by the custom RMS app. In fact, when I try to protect a document created using Word 2013
on this machine it says "The system cannot find the file specified"

  • Office 2013 on Windows Thin PC

    I am having an issue with Office 2013 on Windows Thin PC. It opens up just fine but after going into the Save As menu, if I click on any of the buttons to open the directory window (such as Browse) it crashes the application and points to kernelbase.dll
    (which doesn't really help a lot). It works fine on Windows 7 Pro but Windows 7 Thin PC seems to have compatibility issues. It is consistent across all of the Office apps and all of our Thin PC machines. In my experience, this means that either there is some
    feature missing from the Thin PC image that I need to roll out or I'm simply out of luck and will need to potentially deploy it as a virtual app to get it to work. I was wondering if any of the Office 2013 experts knew of any core component that could be missing
    from the Thin PC image or if anyone has experience with this issue.
    Thanks!

    Hi Scott,
    As you may have already known, the Office application crash error related to "KERNELBASE.dll" may occurs due to lots of reasons. I'm afraid it's hard for us to know which specific "feature" or "core component" is missing
    here, especially when it's installed on a non-supported operation system.
    Windows Thin PC is not a supported Windows operating systems on which you can run Office 2013 program. It is specifically designed to be used as a thin client OS. It uses lower CPU cycles, with local application execution typically restricted to security
    and management.
    So you cannot run any productivity applications, such as Microsoft Office or similar applications on it. If you do so, you might have unexpected issues.

  • Office 2013 Pro - Error Message - I cannot set Office 2013 as the default mail client

    I have a number of PCs on a single domain in the same office all running Windows 7 Pro.  Some at 64 bit and some are 32 bit depending on their age.
    My issue is that on upgrading from Officer 2010 Pro to Office 2013 Pro, the only application I have a problem with is Outlook 2013, and only on the 64 bit machines.   The upgrade on 32 bit machine goes perfectly.   On both I install the
    32 bit version of Office 2013 as per the MS notes.
    When the 64 bit machines reboot and the user logs on I get the message, sometimes twice:
    Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfil the message request. Please run Microsoft Office Outlook and set it as the default mail client.
    OK, so this should be straight forward:
    I set outlook at the default mail client and associate all file with it from Outlook\File\Option.  Nope.  That does not work.
    I go through default programs and set the default mail client as Office 2013 and associate all file with it from Outlook.   Nope.  That does not work.
    I check the registry and it shows that the 64 bit or 32 bit reversion is the default mail client.  So that does not help.
    I install the 64 bit version instead of the 32 bit version. Nope.  That does not work.
    I clean the registry and temp file.  Nope.  That does not work.
    I set a new mail profile for the user. Nope.  That does not work.
    Odd that it only upgrades smoothly on the 32 bit machines.   
    Has anyone got any ideas?   All the suggested fixes on this forum do not fix this issue.

    Hello.
    Same problem, nothing Works!!!
    Help please, really frustrated and angry.
    Added written above   I tried:
    Uninstalled with the Microsoft fix uninstall
    and reinstall. This does not work.
    Contact the phone technical support. This
    does not work.
    Addin,s does not work. Adobe, iCloud Addin ....  does not work.
    'Send email to'   menu   does not work.
    No application communicates with
    Outlook, no Microsoft  or third  apps.
    I can only send and receive emails
    from within Outlook.
    This program is lousy, any
    possibility that my money back.
    Thanks

  • Office 2013 over Windows Server 2012 RDP World Add-On Macro/Template Error

    I have a new Windows Server 2012 Remote Desktop environment for about ten users (not R2) with the latest Office 2013 Pro installed.
    The users all have an add-on word template in Word for Office 2013.  That add-on was installed as administrator and ONLY works as administrator.
    When any other user (even if they are local administrators, domain admins, etc.) opens Word, they are immediately prompted with the following message:
    "Could not load some objects because they are not available on this machine."
    If a user "runs as administrator" it runs fine.  Obviously, I don't want that.  I have been searching and searching and thought maybe there was a group policy or Office setting someone may know that I just can't find.
    Any help would be awesome!  Thank you.

    Hi,
    Once you login with the user account which is not getting access, try the below steps and check if it helps fix the issue: 
    Click on start->control panel->programs and features->right click on the Office 2013 program->click on change->add or remove features-> click on the drop down arrow which is before the Microsoft Office->click on Run all from my computer->Continue.
    Once completed restart the computer and then open to check if the issue occurs.
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

    Here are some of the things I tried that did not solve the problem:
    - The task scheduler is running and working and there are no tasks that give any error
    - I deleted the "Microsoft Help" folder
    - I deleted the file "Rgstrtn.lck"
    - In the registry I deleted "AppCompatFlags"
    - In the registry "NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation" is set to "0"
    - I deleted everything inside the "TEMP" folder
    - I deleted every old versions of Office and their remaining files
    - I used the FixIt files to scrub any old Office installations
    - I am logged in as Administrator, have UAC turned off and gave my account ownership and full access to every file and folder
    - I tried installing on a "clean reboot", tried installing in secured mode, started the setup.exe with administrator rights
    - I tried unregistering and registering "msiexec"
    - I tried extracting the files from the .img file and I am running from C:\ and installing to the standard folder
    Is there anything I can do to get it to finally work?

    For such situation, I'd suggest the following:
    1. Remove current installed office with the fix-it tool in
    KB2739501, and follow the "Remove Office manually" section to make sure there are no remaining files
    2. Either download a trial version of Office 2013 from
    http://office.microsoft.com/, or from
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/jj937170
    3. Reboot your computer in clean boot mode, and run setup again

  • Error in Plugin Installation For MS Office 2013 on Windows 8 and 8.1

    Hello,
    We have developed an installer for MS Word and MS Excel plugins. So far it has been working fine for MS Office 2003, 2007 etc. but since I have upgraded to a Windows 8.1 machine with MS Office 2013 installed, the plugin installation is giving error.
    The installation fails and an error dialog appears with Error Code Type: Error, Error:1, Owner:30a.
     The installer works well for MS Office 2010 on Windows 8/ 8.1 machine or MS Office 2010 on Windows 7 machine.

    HiDinesh,
    Is there any other error message when installation fails?
    According to this error message “Error Code Type: Error, Error:1, Owner:30a.”
    This is problem conclusion provided by IBM:
    This issue is no longer reproducible in V6R2012x.
    Installation checks have been modified to throw an error only when none of the Office applications
    (Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook) are installed. This error will not occur if one or more of the Office products are installed.

  • Office 2013, after windows/office updates recently, pdf add-in no longer works

    We have a user who has Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit, Office 2013 (32-bit) and Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.  They used to be able to "save as pdf" from word, but can no longer do it and gets the error "word is running into problems with the 'acrobat pdfmaker office com addin'add-in.  If this keeps happening, disable this add-in and check for available updates.  Do you want to disable it now?"
    They disable the add-in and are still able to 'save as' and then choose PDF in the pull down menu in word/powerpoint, but has anyone else had this issue?  I'm not sure if this is a question for the adobe folks or the microsoft folks, but it is annoying.  We've already run the Office repair and the Adobe repair but this had no affect.

    Hey rachell71266154,
    Could you please let me know what exact dot version of Acrobat XI are you using.
    You might choose 'Check for Updates' option under the Help menu to use the latest patch of Acrobat.
    Please refer the KB doc link mentioned below and try out solutions to enable PDFMaker add-in in Word:
    PDFMaker unavailable | Office 2007, 2010, 2013 | Acrobat 9, Acrobat X, Acrobat XI, Acrobat DC
    Let me know if this helps.

  • Office 2013 invisible windows

    I have a strange problem that seems to be occurring randomly but regulary on my computer. It also seems to effect some of my collegues but not to the point it does for me.
    The problem is that with my Office 2013 installation I will every once in a while get invisible windows for Office 2013 applications. This means that one or more of my open Office 2013 windows turns invisible and can not be accessed unless first minimized
    by right clicking the taskbar icon and then restored/maximized again. Then the window will turn normal again. A side effect of this is also that sometimes the invisible window is the top window making it impossible to click on whatever window seems to be on
    top (but actually is under the invisible window).
    This applies to all applications in the Office 2013 installation, I have seen the bug for Word, Excel, Outlook (main window, open email conversations, etc), Powerpoint and Access.
    The behaviour is similar to what is described in the following (but closed) thread for the preview version but I am using the latest version with the latest updates from Microsoft Update. The difference is that I do not see any connection to closed windows
    as described in this thread.
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/officeitpropreview/thread/fac48ad4-516c-457c-ba89-56f47f465841/
    I am using Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 (Swedish) but I also have Excel 2003/2007/2010 installed. I have never seen this for any of the earlier versions so this is something new for Office 2013.
    Anyone have any solution to this?

    I've experienced this problem since day 1 of installing office 2013. i don't open attachments as often as some folks might, so that's not where i see the problem. usually one of the office 2013 window will just randomly be invisible when i switch to it.
    i'm used to it by now and i know to either alt+space+r or x (resize window, maximize window) and the window will properly repaint/refresh itself. if i know the form is maximized i can also grab the invisible window handle at the top of the screen, drag it
    around, and it repaints itself.
    I would think it's an issue with some new window container system office uses, because i see it on outlook, onenote, excel, practically all of them that i use. i use no third-party plug-ins except lync and live meeting, and since they're microsoft products
    i don't even consider those as third-party. what comes to mind is the cute new 'customize the look of the office windows' system. i picked the geometric pattern (lol is that bad?). 
    this is on a dell precision company laptop, windows 7 x64, nvidia graphics card, and office 2013 x32. it may be relevant that dameware is installed and running at all times. i wonder if anyone else with this problem also runs dameware?

  • Set Office 2013 Document Themes with Group Policy

    We have created a document theme (as opposed to the Office UI theme) and want to set this as the default for Word 2013 & Excel 2013 for all users without them having to do this themselves. Eg, in Word, under DESIGN, select the prefered Theme & "Set
    as Default"
    There doesn't seem to be anything in the Office 2013 ADM and I have not be able to locate any registry key.
    Is this possible?

    Hi,
    We can use the Office Customization Tool to create a customized .msp file, and then deploy it across the organization.
    Please refer to blog article below, and look on the middle of the article which introduces how to create the customization .msp file.

  • Russian mnemonic keyboard three letters missing: щ ч э - in Office 2013 in Windows 8 Pro or Standard and Windows 7 Pro or Standard

    The issue I believed is Windows specific. It only appears to work correctly on a Windows XP system. I can get the keys to work on Windows 7 or Windows 8 system.
    Russian mnemonic keyboard three letters missing: щ ч э
    I have a client that noticed this issue. He is a linguist and he uses the letters quite frequently. He further explained that...
    Russian mnemonic keyboard three letters missing: щ ч э
    On Windows 8 there is a mnemonic Russian keyboard.
    Unfortunately there are three letters which I can not find: щ, ч and э.
    These three letters exist in the standard Russian keyboard. They are at the following location (in the US  keyboard): o,x and '.
    I also did a test on a Windows 7 machine running office 2013 and still the letters are missing as described.
    The client explained without these three letters the mnemonic keyboard is useless
    Your help to address this issue is greatly appreciated.

    I think it is by design. You can use Preview to show the keyboard layout.
