When you click a hyperlink in a Microsoft Office document, you may experience the behavior that you are redirected to a logon page or an error page.

To fix it, you need to add the following Windows Registry key:


For 32 Bit Office Versions installed on 32 bit Operating Systems or
64 Bit Office Versions installed on 64 bit Operating Systems:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Common\Internet]
"ForceShellExecute"=dword:00000001


For 32 bit Office Versions installed on 64 bit Operating Systems:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Common\Internet]
"ForceShellExecute"=dword:00000001
