I've just installed Office 2010 Professional Plus (upgrading from Office 2007). It works fine under my admin account, but when I login with my wifes non-admin account, every time I open a document or start an app (Word, Excel, Publisher …) Office 2010 goes through its configuration process (starting the the standard install dialog and then running the bootstrap process) before it loads the app – which wastes 2-3 minutes.
Once it's done this, the app runs fine and I can make setting changes that are remembered when it restarts, but I can't work out why it thinks it needs to configure the app each time.
Any thoughts?

OK, have had a little bit of a hunt...
MS Answers recommend the following suggestions:
Peform a "repair" on your Windows installation and the Office installation (although in the context of the linked discussion they were talking about Windows 7, not XP).
Re-install Office (including hints about how to remove Office completely first).
Check you don't have multiple version of Office installed.
