I copied the file and then edited it to be relevant for Office 2010. Unfortunately, it only wiped 20, but luckily, it’s a vbs file and therefore editable.Īfter removing all 20 applications from control panel, I ran the 2007 utility, which found and removed lots of stuff. After speaking with Microsoft support,he received a utility that was to do the job, and it worked well. Luckily,(for me) a colleague had some really nasty problems last year that required him completely removing Office 2007 from his computer. Uninstalling and reinstalling (multiple times) didn’t help at all. It helped me with OneNote and Outlook, but Word and Excel were still problems. I did have the registry permissions problem with HKEY_CLASSES, and walked through the solution outlined here. This problem, as it turns out is not new, and there are unfortunately many possible causes, and as many solutions. As it turns out, that had nothing to do with it, as this is expected behaviour, but I decided to do a full uninstall and reinstall.Īfter reinstalling, every one of my Office applications wanted to run through configuration every time they started. I did notice one odd thing that the version numbers were mismatched at various areas of the system – both and were showing. I tried changing my product key, but it wouldn’t accept my (legitimate) key. Yesterday I got a message saying that it was going to expire in 2 days. I had been running the beta version, and had updated it to the RTM version available on MSDN. I’ve just made it through a pretty nasty problem with Office.
