On my Vista desktop that has no icon problems, that folder does not exist. docx in the registry and noticed that it had an ' OpenWithList' folder with wordpad.exe listed (see screenshot). and that's the one that I will be looking at 95% of the time. Repeat steps 6a - 6d for each value that is missing from the table that is in step 4. In the Edit String dialog box, type the correct value for the missing string value in the Value data box. So, I thought Id post here, and see if anyone else uses this, or knows how, or where I can find/insert it. Click it and your toolbars will reappear. Parallel to these Window Control buttons in the top right corner of the document window is a control that looks like a pill. Ive tried their Help Forum, (no use), and sending them an e-mail, (no response yet). When you have a document open, on the document window left corner just under the Menu Bar are 3 buttons, red, yellow, and green. Click the new value, and then click Modify on the Edit menu. And just a few 'challenges' in, I came across one that wanted me to access the Format Tab. docx is still the wrong one after doing everything mentioned so far. Type the name of the missing value, and then press ENTER. Maybe repair reinstalling, numerous attempts to reset file associations, and upgrading to SP1 of Office 2010 did something. I don't know when it happened, but Excel and Word 97-2003 files have their proper icons back now. It definitely has something to do with Office Starter (which comes with Word and Excel) because Word and Excel are the only Office applications that are effected.ĭoes anybody know what I can do to get the Microsoft Word 2010 icons back while also having documents open with Microsoft Word 2010 (instead of Starter) by default?Ĭlick to expand.Sorry to hear that you have the same problem, although at least we know we're not alone.

I have tried uninstalling Office Starter and the Microsoft Office Client Virtualization Handler, but that didn't work, so then I reinstalled Office 2010 Professional Plus, and that still didn't work. I attempted to reset the file assocation in Control Panel -> Default Programs with no success. I've googled this problem all night and couldn't find any solutions that work. This is annoying because they don't stand out as word documents anymore, decreasing productivity. However, now all the pretty Office 2010 icons (see screenshot) have been replaced by a white page with lines and 'DOCX' at the bottom (see screenshot). It now opens automatically with Microsoft Word 2010. I corrected this by changing the original default application for opening word documents from 'Microsoft Office Client Virtualization Handler' (which came with Office Starter I guess) to the correct Microsoft Word 2010.

When I created a word document in Microsoft Word 2010, saved it, and closed it and then reopened it, it opened with Word Starter that shipped with the laptop.

I recently bought Office 2010 Professional Plus and installed it on my HP Pavilion dm4 laptop.
