It looks like that let me remove it. Some of the files in step 1 wouldn't
delete and said Patch Package could not be opened, verify that it still
exists and can be accessed but I just skipped them and followed the rest of
the steps. I'll come back and let ya know if the reinstall went ok (as soon
as I get the courage to try it, lol)

Can someone tell me how to kill Microsoft? I was using Office 2004 and wanted
to download a template that would only use Off 2007 so I agreed to the trial
version. I let it expire and then couldn't access the old version. I went
ahead and coughed up the $150 for the new version but after download recieved
an error mess. when I tried to run it. (Can't remember exactly what it was,
it was something about a patch not found or s'n.) I saw something about the
old power point being incompatible so I removed all the 2004 Office. I got
ticked and demanded M-soft help or refund my $$, they chose the latter. I am
unable to remove trial version which is probably the problem. I don't mind
repurchasing software but want to remove trial version 1st. I saw in these
posts where I had to delete the temp files and I found a temp folder in my c
drive. I deleted it and rebooted but still can't remove trial version from
control panel/add-remove programs. Is there another temp file folder
somewhere else? I'm fairly dumb on the computer so help guide me if so. Also,
should I restore that temp folder? ANY help will be appreciated and I may
even let MS live. thanks in advance.
