FrontPage won't start - application error

S

Stephen Lang

After several months of using it, FrontPage refuses to
start and issues this message:

Microsoft FrontPage application file has encountered a
problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the
inconvenience.

Any ideas?

Have you tried the usual repairs
1) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all FP Temp Files
2) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all hidden *.web files
3) In Windows Explorer Find and delete the file CMDUI.PRF
4) Disable or Uninstall any FP Addins
5) Run a Repair / Reinstall on FP & IE
6) Install all Service Packs for your OS, IE, and MS Office

I couldn't find any frontpg.lck file anywhere on any hard
disk.

I deleted all the *.web files.

I couldn't find any cmdui.prf file.

I don't have any FP add-ins.

I ran the repair on Office-2000. It didn't fix the
problem.

I re-installed Office-2000. It didn't fix the problem.

I have all the services pack updates for Windows-XP Home
Ed, Office-2000 and IE.

Here is the error signature: "AppName: frontpg.exe
AppVer: 4.0.2.6625 ModName: mfc42.dll
ModVer: 6.0.8665.0 Offset: 0000f9eb"

It's been 2 weeks and I still haven't been able to get my
FrontPage back.

That error is related to

PS the file cmdui.prf is a hidden system file (known file type)
