Everytime I start an application of OFflice 2007, I get the Configuration 
Progress-screen!
Not just the first time but EVERY time.
Hoped SP1 would fixed it, but only made it worse...

I am having the same exact issue.  I also get the "windows installer" pop-up 
every single time, AT THE SAME TIME.  

There is no fix for Office 2007.  I have searched the internet and beyond 
for a fix.  Microsoft, please help.

Windows Vista Premium
Office 2007 Standard

I hate to say it, but Me Too! Whenever I try to open an Office program, the 
Configuration Progress window pops up.

Also, my file extenstions are mixed up. When I click on a *.msg file the 
Configuration Progress window popus up, then the Windows Installer pops up 
and tries to Install my OneNote 2007.

I have am mdb file that is critical to my business and cannot get it to open 
in Access at all.

This is very annoying. I've uninstalled, re-installed several times.

HELP!!

I have 2 pc. One with xp and no problems with office2007 and the other with 
vista  and the same problems with you every time i run an office 2007 
programm. But  the other differance is that in the second pc i used the trial 
version and i had install the office2007 without ININSTALL the trial version. 
I think that here is the problem but no solution at the moment.

I have been trying for weeks to find the solution to the delay in opening
Word 2007 when the Configuration window opens and it takes 40 to
90 seconds to open.

Eureka!!  I finally found the solution. This is from http://uksbsguy.com/
The full URL is at the bottom of the message.

I followed his instructions and IT WORKS!!!!

He is evidently a Microsoft employee.

This is his solution....

How to get rid of the installer / configuration dialog when running Office 
2007 and Office 2003 on the same system - for Vista and other versions of 
Windows
I have been asked this many times following up on the blog entry Installing 
Office 2003 and Office 2007 on the same system where once people have 
removed the problem with the End User Licensing Agreement (EULA) appearing 
every time they start Office they then get the dialogs below every time they 
switch between Word 2007 and Word 2003.

 when starting Word 2003

 when starting Word 2007




The fix to the problem is very simple as it turns out - simply run the 
following commands (by pressing the Windows Key+R or typing it into the 
Start/Run command box.  Use the line with Office\11.0 if you have Office 
2003 installed and Office\12.0 if you have Office 2007 installed.  You can 
use both if you have both installed :

reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Word\Options /v NoReReg /t 
REG_DWORD /d 1

reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Options /v NoReReg /t 
REG_DWORD /d 1

That is it.  Office 2007 might want to have one more spin round the block 
with it's configuration dialog box, but that should be it.

I too had the problem but think I solved it.  I went in to be sure that all 
my security, firewalls and antivirus was turned off.  I did a remove on the 
previous 2007 product install and reinstalled.  I then also went on line to 
MS to assure that the activation was valid.  (The activation is suppose to 
start with the product key if the numbers are valid).  I restarted the 
computer and all seems fine!!!! I have been equally frustrated with this 
problem and had found no solution.
