Office 2010 Issue Well, I am running Windows 7 Pro 32bit and I installed Office Professional 2010 (the beta). I needed to do a school project (a newsletter made with word). I learned how to do it on 2007. So i installed Office Home and Student 2007, and it worked. I did my newsletter, and uninstalled it. But after i uninstalled 2007, Office 2010 refused to work. When i tried to open it, i got an error. I went to the Add/Remove programs to uninstall it. It did it, but after the uninstaller finished, it said "The Uninstall Did Not Complete Successfully". It also did that when i tried to Add/Remove features of Office 2010. When i try to forcefully remove it, such as deleting the Microsoft Office folder from C:\Program Files, I get an error saying that the files i am trying to delete are in use by a program, and to close it and try again. I also tried booting in safe mode to delete it, and it did the same thing. I am at a loss of what to do, and really need some help!
Thanks in advance. | My System Specs |

Thanks in advance.  Hi, Welcome to SF,
You could try removing the Office using Revo uninstaller free edition. It's pretty good in such situations .

If you did not install the initial program too long ago, you could use system restore.
In lieu, of that possiblity and the good Captains advice does not work, you could try C Cleaner, which is also good, when trying to remove remnants of prior programs. CCleaner - Home
The reason that this problem occurs is because if remnants of certain programs remain, other programs cannot be installed. This is particularly common with anti virus programs. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell XPS 420 OS Windows 7 Home Premium SP1, clean install, upgrade disc CPU Intel Core2 processsor Q8200(2.33Ghz 1333FSB) Quad Core Tech Motherboard Dell Memory 6 gb Graphics Card ATI Radeon 256MB HD3650 Sound Card Intergrated 7.1 Channel Audio Monitor(s) Displays Dell SP2009W 20" Keyboard Dell USB Keyboard Mouse Dell Premium Optical USB Cooling Fan Hard Drives 640 GB Serial ATA Hard drive Internet Speed DSL 2.85 |

I had a similar issue, although in my case, programs such as revo installer didn't detect MS Office 2010. I ended up having to do a clean reinstall of Windows 7 to fix the problem. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Hewlett Packard / Dv4-1120us OS Windows 7 Final CPU Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.0Ghz Memory 4GB DDR2 @ 800Mhz Graphics Card Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family Monitor(s) Displays Generic PnP Monitor Screen Resolution 1280 x 800 Keyboard Standard PS/2 Keyboard Mouse Synaptics PS/2 Port Touchpad PSU 6-Cell Battery Internet Speed Anywhere Between 11.0 and 48.0 Mbps |
