Word, how can I allow other users? On administrator, Word says other users are allowed, but when I sign on as another user, Word is not available.

I have Windows XP on a 5 year old Toshiba laptop.  I've had Word 2007 for years.  I now want to make Word available to a different user.  As the "administrator", I give permission for the other user.  But when I sign on as the other user (I've tried it with 2 different user names), there is no sign of Word, and apparently no way to get it.

Hi Taylor,

 

You may try to open Word application from the different Administrator user profile following these steps:

Click Start, go to Run, type winword.exe and hit OK and check if you can open Word application.

 

If still unable to open the application, then navigate to following location:

C:\ProgramFiles\Microsoft Office\Office 12\

Try to open Word by double clicking winword.exe.

 

Hope the suggestion is helpful. If you need further assistance, reply and we will be happy to assist you.
