Excel 2013 Pro won't open files when double -clicking the file.

Hello,

I have a user that is currently running Office 2013 retail from a previous Office 2003 retail install.  Since the upgrade she is unable to open any office documents by double-clicking the file to launch Excel 2013.  When she clicks on the file, be they .xls, .xlsx or .csv, Excel launches like it it going to open the file but then simply sits there with an empty Excel window.  Menu's and ribbon's fully visible and functioning, but no document.  If you then go in and open the file again through Excel's "Open File" procedure, the file opens and all is well.

Now this is the second of two machines running Windows 7 and a fresh install of Office 2013 and the other machine doesn't exhibit this behavior.   What can I do to get the misbehaving machine to get in line?  Is there a registry hack that I can try?

Thanks,

Matt
