Hi,
1. Does this error message happen with all windows application or only for
office applications ?
2. Does this occur for only the newly created user ?
If it is only for office application try the procedure as below.
Reinstall or Repair Office

This procedure detects and repairs problems that are associated with

Subject: error message on second users windows xp programs
Date: Tue, 28 Sep 2004 06:31:09 -0700
I just created/added a new user on the logon to my
computer. All of the windows programs came preinstalled
on my computer. Now when I try to save a document on any
program (ex. word processor) I get an error message
stating:This task may not be completed. Try to restart
Windows or reinstall Windows. After clicking OK on each
error message it goes away and the document still saves,
but when you go to open the document it gives you the
same error messages. The document is there, I'm just not
sure why the error messages are appearing. Can anyone
help me with this little problem, I would greatly
appreciate it!!
Thanks,
Krista
