Word 2007 Error with Online Plug-in: Word could not create the work file. Check the Temp environment variable

Hello -

Running Fundamentals 3.0. This environment has been up for a few days now and just noticed this problem. If I launch Word using the plug-in, I receive the error "Word could not create the work file. Check the Temp environment variable". It happens with all the users I have tested. However, if I open their Citrix Desktop first and leave it open, Word opens from the plug-in without any problems.

I've found a few articles with the error, but they are specifically related to folder redirection, etc. for regular Windows sessions. It does seem to be profile related. As a side note, I am using Immidio Flex Profiles.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks...

The variable is referring to is the location of the Cache variable which is normally pointing to your Temporary Internet Files folder. Currently it is referring to a place which doesn’t exist.

In order to reset this location, you’ll need to go through the Registry;

Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
Value name: Cache
Value type: REG_EXPAND_SZ

By default the Value should point to;

Windows XP
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files
Windows Vista and Windows 7
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet File
