Uninstall MS Office 2007 Beta
I have tried to get help from a ' MS.newuser.beta' site, but
there has not been a reply. I regard this newsgroup as being the best that I have ever used. So. Please can you tell me how to Uninstall MS Office 2007 Beta. (Running XP SP2) This was a try-out from a magazine, that I have used and liked, but would now like to uninstall. There is a process described in a magazine that would be impossible for me to try; it has some 11 Registry edits; indicates that Windows Installer can become corrupted. I understand that if I buy MS Office 2007, I need to uninstall this beta product before I can do the install. Please, please can you help? |

When I used Control Panel Add and Remove I get a message that a file is unavailable or corrupt and the uninstall fails. My magazine says .. "The process outlined here is quite involved - but its worth a try - the only other alternative is to reinstall windows from scratch" I just hoped that someone had used a magic bullet and would reply. ..... From Google ... there is a process that looks a little easier than my magazine. Has anyone used it? |
