How do I disable the Username and Initial prompt from appearing when first opening Office 2007

Asked by AllCounty in Windows 2003 Server, Operating Systems Miscellaneous, Windows XP Operating System

Tags: Microsoft, Office, 2007

We have a computer lab with multiple computers that we are imaging from one machine. Office 2007 is installed on the Windows XP computer. We are going to have hundreds of users that will log onto the machines and use different usernames. The machines are going to be frozen (computer settings revert back to their original state when restarted) so users each time will see their desktop as if it's the first time logging on and all changes they made previously will be reset. We have applied a custom ADM to the local group policy which we have edited to disable the Opt-in Wizard on first run. The problem is we would like to do the same for the the prompt that initially asks for your username and initials when you first open, say Microsoft Word 2007. I have searched through the ADM files included in the Office Customization Tool version 2.0 and cannot find a setting to change this. A solution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
