Getting the error: Microsoft Access can't find the wizard. etc...

Occurs when: Using the Import from Excel feature

I have checked the Add/Remove Features and Access is completely installed, not sure what is missing?

    Well, I did do an upgrade to Office 2010.  I work for GE and it is a test group so far.  It removed Access 2010 during the install.  I reinstalled Access, but honestly, I don't think I tried the wizard since then.  Maybe that had something to do with it?

    Stetter,

    I know you have it working now but a question...  Do you recall if perhaps you installed an update or a new program prior to the wizards issue?

    Yes I tried that too.  

    I just removed Access 2010, then went into registry and deleted all (most?) references to Access.  Reinstalled and it now works... so far.  I dont know for sure which one it was, but there was an entry with wizard items.  Maybe thats the only one needed to delete?

    @Stetter - You've also confirmed that the wizard folder is a trusted location?

    I am having same issue.  I had it working before, but now does not.  i have tried everything posted here, have selected run all from computer, repaired and removed and reinstalled.  Is it maybe something in the registry?  If so, I will need help with that... Thanks
