MS Word Error


Looking back at your first post I see that Word suggested you check your environment variables.

Right click on the Start Button and select System. Then select Advanced system settings from the left side items. Then select the Environment variables button at the bottom.

You should see something like this:




If %USERPROFILE% is missing or it refers to your old username this could be the problem.

You can check if %USERPROFILE% is correct by typing it into the search box and seeing if it comes up with the right folder for your new username.
