Microsoft Word Add-in keeps referring to a network drive: Old Letterhead Wizard case

So we don't use that anymore at SPG. I upgraded the Letterhead Wizard to use the new javascript add-in instead of the old VB script done by someone predates even Al, I think. However, those lingering with the 32bit VB script in their Word would get disrupted every time they open Word with the pop up saying the Letterhead Wizard add-on shortcut cannot be found.

I tried removing the Normal Template from: AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates, but that won't do. Not even going into Word > Options > Add-in > remove all letterhead related matters.

The solution is to delete this shortcut in:

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP

delete the shortcut file Letterheadwizard.lnk and voila!
