We have Office 2013 ProPlus installed on 10 virtual Citrix XenApp 6.5 servers running Win2k8r2.
Our users start a published Desktop and do all their work.
When they try opening a password protected Excel 2013 file by double clicking it, it doesn't load. It loads Excel to begin with but it stops at the green Excel 2013 splash screen saying "Bearbetar..." (swedish for processing) in the lower left corner of the splash screen. I have to go in and kill the Excel.exe process for the user(s). My gut feeling is that this is happening because the small password popup window before the file is loaded isn't shown/visible/loaded. Why? Because once I've killed the process and the user opens that password protected file again, Excel is loaded correctly but a popup saying something like "there was a problem opening this file the last time, want to try to open it anyway?". When the user click "Yes" the password popup is shown and the file is loaded.
Opening up Excel first and then double clicking the file works, as does browsing for the file inside Excel.
Normal Excel files without password protection works fine.
Same thing happens when I am logged on with full admin rights on ALL 10 servers to the console session, so it's not related to Citrix.
Tried excel.exe /unregserver and /regserver without any change.
Heeeeelp! :)
