Microsoft InfoPath 2010 or greater is required to use this feature.

Question

Hello.

InfoPath has been working fine when invoked from SharePoint 2013, recently I have been getting the error "Microsoft InfoPath 2010 or greater is required to use this feature." I don't know what I have changed to cause this problem.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled InfoPath but that has not worked. I have InfoPath 2013 as part of Office 2013 Pro Plus.

Any ideas please?

TIA

Jon

If you are using IE browser, please check in Manage Add-ons wizard and enable both SharepointOpenDocuments and SharePointOpenXMLDocuments.

Microsoft Infopath 2010 or greater is required to use this feature & configure infopath service:

Hi Jon,

Did the error pop out when you click Customize Form button in SharePoint list?

Please change a browser to test whether the issue occurs.

Please check if SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure is activated at site collection level.

Please check if the form settings(list settings > form settings) is set to customize the form using Microsoft form.

After a while on the phone to O365 support, the problem turned out to be a faulty installation of IP2013. A complete uninstall with MS Quick Fix tool then a reinstall, all is good again.

Thank you very much everybody for your help.
