Microsoft Office Live Toolbar issue solved

Q Since I installed the Microsoft Office Live Toolbar, Word.

2003 displays a message that ‘Changes have been made that affect the global.

template, Normal.dot’ and asks if I would like to save them..

Is there a way I can disable the toolbar to see if this is the culprit? If I.

hide it from View Toolbars or delete it from Tools, Customise, it comes back the.

next time I start Word..

I have also checked Templates and Add-ins and Com Add-ins as well as the.

various Start-up folders and read the KB291352 article but unfortunately I have.

found no solution..

A You can suppress the message from Tools, Options, Save,.

but this doesn’t stop the actual saving. Starting winword.exe from the Windows.

Run box with the /a switch will stop all add-ins loading. This should cure the.

problem on a one-off basis..

To disable add-ins individually, close Word, make a System Restore point then.

run Regedit. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\Word\Addins..

Each add-in will have its own key and the Office Live one is named.

OLConnectorAddin.Connect. There will be a value in the right-hand pane named.

LoadBehavior. Double-click on this and change its value to 0. This will stop it.

loading ­ changing this back to 3 will reinstate it..
