Have Front Page 2000 but not able to open it

I've been using MS FrontPage 2000 for quite some time. Now I'm trying to
open it, and I get a message that the application encountered a problem and
has to close. I already turned my computer on and off 2 times, and
uninstalled and re-installed the program several times with no success. I
also downlodes MS active X, which didn't help either. What can I do?

Go here: http://www.95isalive.com/fixes/fpclean.htm and download FP Cleaner ( with
Expression Web Designer and SharePoint Designer support )
Download links are at the bottom of the page.
Run the functions that clear:
The Hidden Temporary files.
The Hidden Cache (*.web) files.
and the function: Restore Default Toolbars and Menus

See if it helps.

I followed your instructions, but it didn't help. Thank you anyway!

I think I began to build a new website, but didn't yet publish it.

1) What was the exact error?
2) What did you find in the event logs?

\Every time I try to open it, I almost immediately get an error message. I
cannot copy and paste it, so here is part of it:
Error signature
App Name: frotpg.exe AppVer: 4.0.2.3821 ModName: unknown
ModVer 0.0.0.0. offset: 0f000040

Exception information
code: Ox0000005 Flages 0x00000000
Record 0x000000 Address 0x000000000f000040
System Information
Windows NT 5.1 Build: 2600 (I have windows XP, maybe that's the problem)
There's a LOT more, but I'm unable to copy and past it.

A few seconds after I open it, I get an error report. What are the event
logs?
The application file reads"
AppName: frontpg.exe AppVer: 4.0.2.3821 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 0f000040

Technical Information:
Code: 0xc0000005 Flags: 0x00000000f000040

System Information shows Windows NT 5.1. I have Windows XP. Maybe that's
the problem?

Then they show details for 40 modules, several threads, memory range, and
entire contents. As I'm not able to copy and paste, I can't send you all
these deails.

Thanks for your help!!

Find and delete the cmdui.prf file for FrontPage - this is the file that
stores your customizations and preferences for the FrontPage Menu and it
will get rebuilt, using the defaults, the next time you start FrontPage.
