    Standard users unable to use Office apps after Windows 10 update


    Updated a pc from Win 7 Home Premium 64bit to Win 10 Home 64bit.
    The pc is used by three users, one of which is the administrator. The pc had Windows Office Home & Student 2013 32bit which has Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote and Windows Office 2007 which I only installed Outlook and Publisher.
    When the pc was running Windows 7, the Standard users were able to use all the above Office applications BUT now that it is running Windows 10 the Standard users have lost the icons on the desktop to the above and are not able to use them without the Administrator password!!
    How can I get the Standard users to be able to use the above without the Administrator password?

    Hi scopio

    This thread suggest that doing a repair on the install can fix the issue.

    Thanks Caledon Ken, I think I will try the repair or uninstall and reinstall see if that fixes it.
