Unable to uninstall Office 2007
I had installed Office 2007 during the beta test days of MS. I had totally forgotten about it as I rarely log into Windows. I had to make some changes to a document in Windows only to realise that it was out of date. So, I can't use that anymore. Now, I need to uninstall it, but its telling that the installer is corrupt and I should try from the source, i.e., the install file. When I try to do it that way, its showing that file is corrupt as well! Is there anyway to uninstall this bloatware?

Re: Unable to uninstall Office 2007
Three ways valuable to try :
1st; Do u have used Adobe Flash Player 3.0. Uninstall it must need the uninstall code. i dont know how about Office 07 because it isnt popular in our state and i dont use it now
2nd; delete Office 07' register code first then crush the file
3: Reinstall OS. the worst and last way.
I know above ways are not good. i just want to help u.

Re: Unable to uninstall Office 2007
1st won't work out as I don't have the software installed.The second option seems ok. Where do I search and delete it? 3rd option can't be done at all. No good ways to backup

@Kenshin-That's what I wanted to do as well, but somehow even that file got corrupt. Don't know how. No malware has infected my system.

Re: Unable to uninstall Office 2007
^^ Nope. Actually there will e keys under the above mentioned keys with the name 10.0, 11.0, etc. These keys depend upon the office version installed in ur system.

Re: Unable to uninstall Office 2007
Uninstalled 2003 from Control Panel. Since 2007 can't be uninstalled, I removed the files manually and cleaned the registry with Tuneup Utilities 2007 AND CCleaner. But, the damn 2007 thing still has assosciations with the files. Any method to remove it by hand COMPLETELY!???
