Windows users face an issue on their Windows 10, 8.1 and 7 system which shows Publisher has Detected a Problem whenever they try to open any file Publisher. The error occurs when a user try to access the file from externally and both of the files were created in publisher program. If it’s the scenario with you too then you can follow the methods I have mentioned in this article to fix this error.

Using Graphics Manager to hide images

·         Launch the Publisher menu.

·         Click on the ribbon box.

·         It is located on the upper side of the screen.

·         After going there, choose the View option.

·         You need to go through the checkbox linked with the Graphics Manager.

·         Press on the OK button to save the changes you have made.

·         Exit from the recent Publisher menu; launch the file, which is showing the Publisher had detected a problem error on Windows.

Recovering the data through the insert text feature

It is another effective method you have to fix this error on your Windows PC or laptop. You can resolve this issue by recovering the data by the insert text feature. To know how, follow the steps listed below:

·         You have transferred the content to a new folder now.

·         Start arranging it, and after that, save the file through the Save As feature option.

·         Launch the created file once again.

·         After you get the User Account Control menu, you need to press on the Yes button.

·         After going to the Registry Editor menu, go to the below-mentioned locations, but it depends on the version of the Publisher.
