Visio 2010 preparing to install

Copied all data from old profile and blew it away, now working correctly!!! I am sooo happy. Thanks to Max for suggestions and hope this helps someone else. I am not even going to think about how this could have been the cause given how flaky XP profiles are and how many issues they are the cause of. Because I suspect this reconfigures at each launch, it never registers in the classes library properly, and so cannot be selected as a program to open for example a. As such it is a royal pain, and the shortcut suggestion would not, I don't think, fix this.

Again, as stated in the original mail, I have tried this without success. Finally, there is no previous version of Office - these were uninstalled and the appropriate cleanups were run subsequently. I am grateful for your help, but please read my original submission which covers everything I have tried until now. I have Office and Visio both installed, and they work both fine when I log on with the domain account. After 2 whole years of this nonsense, I decided to come up with my own targeted fix.
