Removing bad Office 2007 and Installing trail
Posted by Michelle on July 1st, 2008


I hd a problem with the installation of Office 2007 student version, so I
tried to remove it with widows install clean up. Does this remove the
original install so I can load another version of Office 2007 Pro?

It removes the registry entries for the installer.
The Office2007 H&S key will not work with a different edition of Office.
What is / was the exact nature of your origonal problem?

I download the wrong version for school I'm currently taking. When I tried to
remove it, I was not able to. Somehow I must of corrupted it, then I read I
could use "Install Clean up",Then maybe retry the download of a the Student
version. What do you mean by "The Office2007 H&S key"??

If you installed one version of Office you should use the add remove
dialogue to uninstall that version, then clean up temp files (Disk Cleanup)
re boot your PC prior to installing another version of Office

The installation key you may have will only work on the version it was
supplied for.
Does download mean install from Disk or Internet download? and if internet
download did you save the download file?
Do you have any version of Office on cd/dvd, if so what versions?
