Office 2007 Keeps installing
Hi
new Dell PC with Vista Home Premium. Office 2007 (Home & Student) keeps wanting to (re or complete ?) install every time one selects a program from the menu or shortcut. Running from the .exe file itself no problems. Dell not much help ("we sell hardware..."). Much searching says de-install, use Install cleaner and re-install. All of which I have done but to no avail Any suggestions or am I just stuck with a poor piece of saftware ? Krys |

Did you uninstall your Trial version first?

I did not have a trial version, this was exactly as shipped from Dell with
Office 2007 pre-installed. Started behaving like this out of the box "DL" wrote: Did you uninstall your Trial version first? "Key" wrote in message news Hi new Dell PC with Vista Home Premium.

Had the same problem. This worked for me:
open one of the applications i.e. Word. Click on the Microsoft button at the top left. At the bottom of the pop up screen next to the Exit button is the applications options button, i.e. Word Options, click it. Click the Resources button at the lower left of the pop up. Then click the button Run Microsoft Office Diagnostics. Let it run. Mine found an error in the set-up part of the test and fixed it automatically. "Key" wrote: Hi new Dell PC with Vista Home Premium.

You have the Trial version. If it came with your computer from Dell then it is a
Trial version -- Peter Please Reply to Newsgroup for the benefit of others Requests for assistance by email can not and will not be acknowledged. "Key" wrote in message ...

Hey Pete, if you don't want to read the replies stop reading them. This
worked for me, what’s your problem? I'm sure this answers thousands of problems or why did MS spend hundreds of thousands adding it to MS Office. Chill.

Are you running Vista Home Premium with Office 2007 Home and Student which this
poster has? Your fix which you are posting wildly for different issues that OP's are experiencing in Office is false. When you will have credibility with your fix which is far fetching for some of the issues that you answered to with the exact same fix then I will hear you. Trying to tell an OP with an Office Enterprise which is a VL version and having an installer issue to use your fix is a bit to much even to read. Are you familiar at all with Office Enterprise ? or any other versions of Office aside from yours which we do not even know since you did not post it saying that was where your fix worked, -- Peter Please Reply to Newsgroup for the benefit of others Requests for assistance by email can not and will not be acknowledged.
