This article was previously published under Q189292



SYMPTOMS
When you view the System File Checker tool log file (Sfclog.txt), some of the Microsoft Office 7.0 for Windows 95 or Microsoft Office 97 files may be listed as updated. This may occur even if you have not made any changes to your Office files.



CAUSE
This issue can occur if the Tune-up Application Start program (Walign.exe) is run after Office is installed. This program modifies some of the properties of some Office files, but does not update the System File Checker baseline information.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, update the System File Checker baseline information. To do so, click Update Verification Information when you are prompted.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.
