How to migrate Office 2010 Pro application most recently opened document (MRU) to Office 2013 applications

I am upgrading from Office 2010 Pro to Office 2013 Pro. In my test, we discovered that the MRUs are not getting migrated over from the Office 2010 Pro applications into the Office 2013 Pro applications. I am using the Microsoft
Office 2013 OCT to do the configurations. In the OCT, I have "migrate user settings" checked, but that did not work for the users MRUs. I came across the following link
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/67b3622f-5b7c-4c57-b71d-c8c7de6f7da9/office-2010-pro-to-2013-not-migrating-settings-and-recent-history?forum=officeitpro
That suggests manually creating the Migration key with sub keys like below
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\Migration\Word]
"UpgradeVersion"=dword:0000000d
"Lang"=dword:00000409
On the test machine that I was using and had installed Microsoft Office 2013 Pro on, I found the keys listed as follows
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\Migration\Word]
"UpgradeVersion"=dword:0000000e
"Lang"=dword:00000000
1) I would like to know which is correct subkey ("UpgradeVersion" and "Lang") to use?
2) Since I am using the OCT, can I add or import them into the OCT add registry entries section?
Thanks for your help.

Since you are doing an uninstall-upgrade the MRU list will not migrate by default.
"UpgradeVersion"=dword:0000000d means Office 14.0, also known as Office 2010
"UpgradeVersion"=dword:0000000e means Office 15.0, also known as Office 2013
"Lang"=dword:00000409 means Locale ID = English_United_States, and the "Lang"=dword:00000000 means default.
In this case, you plan to migrate Office 2010 to 2013. thus, the correct one is
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\Migration\Word]
"UpgradeVersion"=dword:0000000e
"Lang"=dword:00000409 (00000000 is ok as well)
Yes, you may import them into OCT registry entries section, or you may deploy these registry keys before migration.

Why do Preview and other programs always open the most recently opened documents?

This is a minor issue but it bugs me a lot because I never have more windows/documents up than necessary. Every time I open a PDF in Preview, it also opens up all the documents that were up when I quit Preview before. All the Office programs do the same thing. I've searched high and low in the individual program preferences, and nothing works--for example, unchecking "Track recently opened documents" doesn't help for PowerPoint, and I don't even see a similar setting for Preview. Since it's a pan-program problem, I looked in the general System Prefs and I tried unchecking "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps." Didn't help. I even re-started. Didn't help (the "Restore windows..." box is still unchecked though, it didn't re-check it). What can I do to stop this silly setting???
Thanks!

That looks like it would work...for someone who knows how to do it! That is way over my head. I found this article in another thread and it looks do-able for someone as tech-unsavvy as me, except that I can't find the "Saved Application State" folder that they talk about, not even if I search using Spotlight or Alfred. Sigh. Any other ideas, or am I doomed if I can't write script?

Office 2013 Upgrade - Retain Recently Opened Documents/WorkBooks from Office 2010

Hello,
In our Windows 7 environment, we are planning to upgrade our users from Office Professional Plus 2010 to Office Professional Plus 2013 via SCCM 2012 R2. One of the user requirements is that we are to retain their recently opened files/documents
so that the history will still be shown even after they have upgraded over to Office 2013.
From what I have researched, it may be possible to do this if we copy some of the user's registry keys from Office 2010 and export them to the Office 2013. However, I have not tried it and wanted to see what thoughts you guys may have on this.
Has anyone run into this situation? Any advice on this? Thanks.

Hi Jimmy,
Did you get any error message when you try to open an Excel file/Word document?
If so, you can post the error message and event log here.Also ,if you had antivirus software installed, try to disable them to test this issue.
In addition, what happens if you add the network server location as a trusted location?

Activating office 2010 pro plus with kms server

why is it showing it is in grace period and not activated on the kms server?
I have already installed the kms server key following this
http://blogs.technet.com/b/odsupport/archive/2010/06/01/office-2010-kms-installation-and-troubleshooting.aspx
thanks

what does the client side need. Do they need a kms key? how do I check
on the KMSclient, and/or on the KMShost, to check, you can use:
cscript slmgr.vbs /dli all > c:\kmsout.txt
(this will output all possible Windows and Office licenses to the output file, and shows the status of each)
When you install Windows or Office by using VL media, by default these are pre-configured with KMSclient product key.
In case the machine may have been reconfigured with a different product key, and you find that you need to reconfigure back to a KMSclient product key, the Office KMSclient product keys are here:

"An Office 2003 installation on your computer is corrupted and setup cannot continue" error on Office 2010 Pro install

I am currently trying to install Office 2010 Pro Plus onto my machine that has Access 97 and Access 2003, Visio 2003, Excel 2003, PowerPoint 2003, and Word 2003 installed. I need to keep the previous versions of Office installed as they are used for development
work. When I try installing Office 2010 I've stopped with the following error message: "An Office installation on your computer is corrupted and setup cannot continue. Remove or repair the Office 2003 product and re-run setup." I can't remove and
repair doesn't seem to do anything. Most posts suggest removing previous office versions or deleting/altering the MS Office registry keys (which would damage the previous versions of Office). Is there a solution to install Office 2010 independently of any
other version of Office installed?

I figured out a method to finally install Office 2010 bypassing the error stated in the title, by manually removing all the keys that included the term "Office 2003" from the Windows registry.
I share my fix with more details and pictures step by step here :

Please note that you need to be very careful when manually editing the Windows registry as it may cause problems to your operating system and even cause a massive failure requiring you to re-format your disk.
Feel free to use my fix at your own risk. I will not be held responsible for any damage caused or data loss.

Upgrade Office 2010 Standard to Office 2010 Pro Plus using Config.xml

Hello,
I am upgrading Office 2010 Standard to Office 2010 Pro Plus. But after using the below config pro plus did get installed but both versions of Office 2010 ( Stand and Plus ) show up on the machines. I want only Office Pro plus to appear.
The second issue is that even after uninstalling Office 2010 Standard from the Control panel the Office shows activation of both ( Going to --File ---Help)
How can I edit this config.xml to remove office 2010 Standard first and then upgrade to Office 2010 Pro Plus?
<Configuration Product="ProPlus">
<Display Level="None" CompletionNotice="No" SuppressModal="Yes" AcceptEula="Yes" />


<PIDKEY Value="aaaa-aaa-aaa-aaa" />
<COMPANYNAME Value="XYZ Co." />
<Setting Id="AUTO_ACTIVATE" Value="1" />







</Configuration>

Hi,
Here is not a Config.xml solution, but we can use it as a workaround, basically automate the uninstallation of Office 2010, reboot the computer and then deploy Office 2010. You may find the following article useful if you need more info on that.

Hi,
Yes, I agree with Don’s suggestion. You can download copy of Office 2010 with a valid product key.

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office
programs.

I created a spreadsheet using Microsoft office 2010 Excel. When I open the sheet using Numbers, the formatting changes. How do I fix this?

I created a spreadsheet using Microsoft office 2010 Excel. When I open the sheet using Numbers, the formatting changes. How do I fix this?

If you plan to share or work with people who regulary use MS Excel you should not try to use this in Numbers. You will have constant problems with how each program translates the formatting.
If you want to use Numbers, use it exclusively. If it is for your job use the tool your company uses.

Is CS3 Design Standard compatible with Windows 7 64-bits and MS Office 2010 Pro Plus?

Hi,
I have been googling around to see if Adobe CS3 Design Standard is compatible with Windows 7 64-bits with MS Office 2010 Pro Plus, but I couldn't find a decent answer.
If anyone here has any idea on this, please let me know.
As far as i know Adobe CS3 comes with Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro which is not compatible with MS Office 2010, so I am sort of worried that I will need to upgrade my CS3 to CS6.
Any advises are welcome.
Thanks.

I don't know if Acrobat 8 is Win 7 64 bit compatible or if it's supported. The rest of the apps should be fine.
But I do think you'll have issues with Office 2010 files being placed into InDesign.
Moving to CS6 is something you should be thinking about very soon. You only get upgrade pricing until the end of the year, but I highly recommend taking a look at Creative Cloud. At $29.99/month for the first year it's a bargain.

How to migrate sharepoint 2010 infopath form to sharepoint online.

how to migrate SharePoint 2010 infopath form to SharePoint online.

Hi Partha,
You use powershell script to migrate infopath forms from SP 2010 to SP Online. But you need to be careful about external connections used in infopath forms(web service connections etc.) because they might required to be changed. So, for data connections,
use of Data Connection Library is a preferable way or you can write a powershell script to update the data connections also.
You can find the sample script from the below url:

Compatibility: Project 2013 Pro and Office 2010 Pro Plus

Beyond an obvious recommendation to upgrade Office (which cannot happen in this instance), is the shared code base between Office and Project the same or close enough to avoid performance or functionality issues that would not be experience if Office 2010
Pro Plus and Project 2010 Pro?

Hello,
For Project Server 2013 you will need Project Pro 2013 but the rest of Office can be 2010.

How and where do I access the most recent backup of my iTouch's calendar PRIOR to my auto-sync?

How and where do I access the most recent backup of my iTouch's calendar -- prior to the recent auto-sync which lost 5 yrs. of info. on my calendar? I want to retrieve it.

All you can do is restore from backup. To do that see the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
Also, turn off autosyncing so that when you reconnect the iPod to yuor computer the old backup does not get overwritten . To turn off go iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says "Prevent iPods...".
iTunes only retains the most recent backup and updates it with the changes.

Most recently used documents

How do I delete the MRU files within StarOffice 6.0? Is there a way to configure the program so that a file's location and file is not displayed under the "Files" menu?

Hi
The history of loaded URLs (ie the most recently used documents) are saved in the file "Common.xml". This file can be found in the directory:
" \StarOffice6.0\user\config\registry\instance\org\openoffice\ Office\ "
To delete these entries, load the file in a text editor and find the "<History>" entry. Delete all lines in the file up to the entry "</History>" (i.e., all entries between "<History>" and "</History>").
This will also delete all entries in the URL history as well as all entries in the picklist (the list of the most recently used files found in the File menu).
Important:
This procedure involves manual intervention to the configuration of StarOffice. It can occur that if the wrong entries are deleted, StarOffice will no longer be able to function correctly. Please remember that all manual intervention to the configuration files is the sole responsibility of the user. In this particular case, any mishaps that may result to the program cannot be supported or guaranteed.
If the above does not work, please let us know. Thanks!
