Error - Patch package could not be opened
I use MS Office 2000 Premium. I was deleting some files that I felt were not
important to Windows in order to make room on HD. Things like cookies, history, Temp files, etc. Apparently, I deleted something that I should not have deleted and had to reinstall WIN98-SE. Everything appeared to be ok until I clicked on EXCEL icon on desktop. Window popped up telling me it needed to be installed before it could run. I opened Windows Explorer and looked to see if the office software was there and it is, as far as I can tell. Anyway, I inserted the CD and clicked on START--RUN--BROWSE to access the SETUP application on the CD. I then get an error that says "Patch Package could not be opened..." Can anyone help with this? Thanks, Les |
