Microsoft Office 365 Installation and run Error 0xc0000142
I built a new computer this month and a couple of weeks ago I installed Office 365 with absolutely no problems. Today I uninstalled Office in the hopes that I could move it off my off SSD and on to my HDD. Turns out I don't think that's possible, but the real problem is I cannot get it to work at all anymore.
I log in online and enter my product key to install, download the 32 bit installer (which is recommended even for 64 Bit windows) and begin the install. As soon as the installation reaches 52% the following error message pops up:
If I close it it comes up again, and again. About 25 times. Then it stops appearing. It almost seems as if this error doesn't affect the installation because if I don't close the error message the percentage of the installation continues.
Once Office finishes installing none of the components will run. Not Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Onenote, Outlook or any executable in the installation folder at all.
The error message displayed for all of them is the same code:
I have spent about 5 hours today searching forums for advice on this issue and have made no progress whatsoever. Here are the things I have tried so far:
1. Clean uninstalling with this Microsoft fix-it and reinstalling.
2. Reinstalling with Firewall off.
3. Reinstalling with Antivirus off.
4. Installing this Hotfix.
5. Cleaning the registry.
6. Command Prompt SFC/scannow.
7. Quick repair via control panel.
8. Online repair via control panel.
9. Starting Word in safe mode with "winword /safe".
10. Setting "Wake on Magic Package" to Disabled via device manager for my Network Adapter.
I need to go to bed soon, so I will have to stop troubleshooting for now. Tomorrow I am going to try a clean boot as well as Chkdsk.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
