Problems with installing Endnote – Word "can not find a copy of EndNote X7.0.1 to launch."

This particular error can occur when working with Word 2008/2011. After EndNote online plug-in installation, when trying to use the Cite While You Write toolbar in Word, you will see the EndNote desktop toolbar instead of EndNote online toolbar. When you try accessing this toolbar you will be prompted with this error message,

Cannot find a copy of EndNote to launch. Error code is 10814

This can be resolved by switching the tools to EndNote online. To do this in Word 2008/2011.

  1. Open Word.

  2. Go to the “Tools” menu, point your mouse over “EndNote X4/X5/X6/X7” and select “Cite While You Write Preferences…”.

  3. On the Cite While You Write Preferences window, click on the “Application” tab.

  4. Select “EndNote Web” or “EndNote online”. Enter your registered E-mail address and password for EndNote online.

  5. Click “OK”.

6. Restart Word and try using the Cite While You Write commands again.
