Windows can not find C:\
 

I repaired and uninstalled then installed Office 2007. I opened Excel up and
search for my Excel Spreed Sheet and open it and then save as on my desktop
like I always do. Then when I double click on the Icon I get "Windows can not
find C:\User etc. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.

Windows can not find C:\
 

Re-register Excel.

Close Excel first and On the Windows Taskbar

1) StartRun "excel.exe /unregserver"(no quotes)OK.
2) StartRun "excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes)OK.

See the space between exe and /regserver

You might have to designate a full path to excel.exe.

In that case StartRun "C:\yourpath\excel.exe" /regserver(quotes
required)OK.

Have you reconfigured Excel to look at the correct path for your files.
This can be done in Excel 2003 by going to Tools / Options / General /
Default file locations. I presume it is something like this in Office 2007.
