Yeah IE8 is definitely scary and produces a swathe of problems that can only be resolved various methods to get it to emulate IE7.
So why upgrade at all? :) From: ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com [mailto:ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com] On Behalf Of Nigel Hertz Sent: Monday, 19 April 2010 11:11 AM To: ozMOSS Subject: RE: Windows 7 - Set as Default My Site broken We've got a few Windows 7 test machines set up that we're starting to test on. The biggest issue is not being able to edit documents. It doesn't matter if you check it out, click 'edit in office app', click the edit button when the doc opens - various errors appear depending on which way you try editing, but the most common is 'the document url is invalid'. I doubt we'll be rolling out Windows 7 any time soon, but it is a concern. The only upcoming change they're making here is rolling out IE8 - I think I have reason to be scared :p From: ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com [mailto:ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com] On Behalf Of Paul Noone Sent: Monday, 19 April 2010 11:03 AM To: ozMOSS Subject: RE: Windows 7 - Set as Default My Site broken For anyone who cares this problem is still on-going. As per Paul T's suggestion I have "Published links to Office client apps" list in Central Admin. The 'My SharePoint Sites' list remains empty for Windows 7 users. I also tried Chris's fix of adding team site shortcuts to this folder. Trying to save to the shortcut results in the document being saved as '[shortcutname].docx' within the root of the My SharePoint Sites folder. :) I'm all out of ideas. Hoping someone else has some.

There are actually several issues but the main one is that the My SharePoint Sites folder on the local machine does not get populated. I've played around with the registry keys but still nothing. Office just isn't doing its job. Anyone else experienced this or know how to resolve the problem? Chris, you seemed to have the same problem but I couldn't find a solution posted in the archives.

I've Googled but can't find anyone else who is having this problem. There's a known Vista issue but the fix of deleting the timestamp reg key doesn't work. We're forced to also explicitly add the correct value for the user's My Site. Has anyone else experienced this? We're trying to determine where the issue resides - the OS, Office or IE8.
