After the SharePoint administrator has installed, configured, and activated Office Web Apps, end users might receive an error message when they try to view or edit Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, or Microsoft OneNote documents in the browser.


These errors might occur for one or more of the following reasons: (Microsoft recommendations)

• The SharePoint administrator has run Office Web Apps Setup, which configures the default open behavior for SharePoint to open Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote documents in the browser by using their associated Web application.
