I went back again & checked the areas I supposedly changed & one still said open.. guess it didn't take the first time. Sorry for the negative comment previously submitted. The fix works perfectly thank-you winhelponline :) Hello again, the fix worked..

FIXED!- Be sure and uninstall old PPV/reboot before continuing! 1. FIRST install MS Word, Excell, PPV Compatibility Pack for Win 7 (X86, or x64)/reboot. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=941b3470-3ae9-4aee-8f43-c6bb74cd1466&displaylang=en Now Install MS Word 2003 Pro (bought it relatively cheap on Ebay- Buy Now). I used freeware Process Explorer (Download Cnet, Options Replace TM/reboot), to disable Explorer during install- When requested to do so. Now do your MS updates/reboot "twice (any MS update!) & check for more... ENJOY! Scott :o) As for many with these buggy regisrty tweaks, I could now open PPV from WLM, but not from Desktop!?
