Unable to deploy Word after initial install of Office 2013 Pro Plus

Hi.

I have an .msp that configures Office 2013 to install only Excel. Now, I have been asked to add Word, VisioViewer and Lync to the clients.

I have created an .msp according to this: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc179141.aspx#BKMK_CustomizeExistingInstall.

I have deployed the new .msp to a couple of test-machines. Lync and VisioViewer work great, and the shortcut for Word is present, but does not start the application.

Does anyone have experience with this problem and preferebly a solution?

Thanks in advance.

Any error message somewhere? Anything useful in the eventlog?

No, nothing useful anywhere, that I know of :-(.

I will try to deploy on a few more machines to make sure, it is not an issue on the clients.
