    Microsoft Office Click-to-Run Service / Cortana frustrations


    After running services.msc, I open "Microsoft Office Click-to-Run Service" properties and apply DISABLED. At some point, and I haven't determined what triggers it, because I check after turning on laptop after an overnight shutdown and it will still show as DISABLED -- for a while -- but at some point it will turn itself back to being AUTOMATIC. HOW does it override my direct instructions of DISABLED over and over? Similarly, I must play whack-a-mole ending Cortana within my Task Manager every new start of my HP Pavilion laptop. Frustrating.

    :)

    Microsoft Office 2013 - Click to run default programmes

    Thank you for that, however that was the problem. My Microsoft Office suite programmes were not showing when I wanted to 'open with'. They were in my apps, but not in my Control Panel programmes. I ended up having to contact Microsoft who managed to sort
    this for me by manually linking the programmes. It took about two hours of their time,, for which I am extremely grateful.

    Microsoft Office 2013 - Click to run default programmes

    Generally if you undertake an Office repair, that resets the file associations, but if you also have installed some other Office type program that may overwrite the MS Office file Associations
