I use to open my email files in Word but recently, I cannot do it anymore. I cleaned
the registry and reinstalled word but the problem continues. I am experiencing this
situation in both Yahoo and Gmail.

Could anyone there help me? This is very important since I am earning a living with
Word and emails.
I Would appreciate any insight into the problem.
 
You mean email attachments in word (.doc .docx etc right?

Cant you just reset the file association?

I could not fix the problem because my computer cannot find
the Laserfiche file. So the problem seems to be much deeper
than I thought both with word and the operating system. I am going
to HP for support. Thank you very much for your help.

What happens if you right click on the file and choose 'Open With'?

It does the same thing blue screen with error message as stated before.
 
A blue screen, as in a 'Blue screen of Death'? Like this?

Does it automatically restart the PC after the blue screen?

Can you make a note of the error message?


From what you have said so far I'm wondering if this 'Registry cleaner' you used has buggered up the pc in some way.... It wouldn't surprise me.....

The blue screen is inside the window of word not the computer screen.
Error message: "There is a problem sending the command to the program".

I did the registry cleaning with Advance PC Tweeker, after the fact.

Thanks for your interest in helping, I really appreciate it.

I executed your recommendation and did not work.
question: If I uninstall Word and then re-install it. Would this help?
