When I started the VB6 IDE on a hand-me-down work laptop, the Windows Installer pop-up
dispayed and proceeded to sit there indefinitely. I had the following event log
entry display: Detection of product '{91510409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9}', feature
'OfficeUserData', component '{C9AF9050-C8BE-11D1-9C67-0000F81F1B38}' failed. The
resource 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Common\UserData' does
not exist.
Looking at my personal laptop (I try to keep that well configured), I copied the
entry and value and applied that to the problem child - that is, I created 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Common\UserData'
as a DWORD entry with a value of 0x00000001. Without needing reboot the problem
laptop, the VB IDE started up as it should (and without the Windows Installer dialog
box).
Hope this helps some of you.
