I installed the home and student version 2007 from digital river site and started it as a trial. But the files were not associated. (docx, xlsx. etc wont open by office) . I activated the windows after purchasing a key - office works fine but it did not associate any office files again. Is there any simple way that I can restore the file associations? (Note: I would not use right click on a doc file and say "always open with office" because there lots of excel, word, ppt extensions and I can not do all of them one by one.
As a preliminary search, I learnt that this is a common problem in one click installation files (I downloaded from digital river as single exe file)
-regserver or -r switches did not work. Any solution for this problem? How can I associate all office files to my office installation?
Hi
I am sorry but i want to be clear
You have lot of extentions or lots of office files. You have to do the right click operation on each extention not file i.e doc, docs, xls, xlsx ppt, pptx etc. and that is not so difficult

I know this thank you. But I have to know all office extensions for this. What if someone sends me an office file that that I do not know the format and do not realize it is an office file? OK anyway, I will search what are types of office extensions there and register all of them right clicking on them.
Edit. Thank you but you are not helpful. Office file lists are there and they are way too much.

For now this seemed to work, in case anyone had the same problem. Well the main aim of the software is different but associates all file types to office.
