Re: Word saving conflict with hp scanjet 5590

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



Thank you Charles. I saw your earlier post on a different thread. It did
install the updated version of MS06-015. It helped some but not enough in
the "saving" function. MSWord still locks up if you try to identifiy a
folder beyhond the first layer to save the doc to. I used System Restore to
go back to a "pre MS06-015" date and turned off the auto-update function.
Obviously not the best solution but the only one that works at this point.

after you install security update MS06-015

If you aren't comfortable with editing the Windows registry yourself, then
go to http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm and scroll down to Item
No. 383 "Hewlett-Packard's Share-to-Web software - Fix". Download and run
the script to automatically modify your registry as described in KB918165.
You may need to temporarily disable your antivirus program in order to run
the script.

A revised version of the MS06-015 update was released last week that
supposedly interacts better with the older HP and nVidia software. You can
download the revised update from
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-015.mspx.

Some people may suggest that you uninstall the MS06-015 update, or rename
the c:\windows\system32\verclsid.exe file. Doing either of these things
will leave your computer vulnerable to the security issue described at
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-015.mspx. You should
only uninstall these if the revised patch causes the same problems and the
registry edit doesn't help.

Using OfficePro 2000, after HP scanjet 5590 software is installed, Word
locks
up if I try to save a Word file. Word opens, cretaes and prints a new
file
OK, it just will not allow "Save" or "Save As" to function.
