MetConv error on opening Word
This is more a nuissance than a major problem but it is getting old so it would be nice to find a solution if it exists.
I'm in a Windows 10 laptop in which I have installed both Office 2007 and Office 2002. The reason I have both is because I prefer working in 2002 but will occasionally use Office 2007 despite its ribbon. I've done this for many years.
Recently (past few months) I've been getting an error whenever I open Word 2002. The popup error is shown in the screenshot below. I just acknowlege the error and everything continues fine which is why I say it is a nuissance more than a problem.
The MetConv file seems to just be a metric conversion table.
As directed and searched for and viewed the Metconv.log. Two exist:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office10
C:\Users\username\Anderon\Local\VirtualStore\Progr am Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office10
They are uninformative and identical. Just a list of possible conversions. If I delete them, they are recreated.
I've narrowed down the occurances of this error. It seems to occur if I start up Word 2002 after Word 2007 has been used. So I am guessing (without knowing much about it) that there is a conflict between where 2007 and 2002 put or use their Metconf files, but I really do not know.
Is there something I can do to stop this Metconv error from occuring?
Thank you.
