Cause
This happens if office group policies are set to use an UNC Patch.

Please check these registry keys in order to see if this could be the case in your environment:

> [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Common\General]
   "UserTemplates"=MULTI_SZ:\\Server\Folder

> [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Common\General]
   "SharedTemplates"=MULTI_SZ:\\Server\Folder

Resolution
Change to UNC path to use a local path, e.g. C:\
