IS UPGRADING MS OFFICE PRO CAN FIX MY WINDOWS INSTALLER PROBLEM?

S

SAM7167

I INSTALLED MULTIPLE VERSION OF MS OFFICE AND DECIDED TO GO FOR THE
PROFESSIONAL VERSION FROM MY FRIEND. SINCE THEN, I GOT TROUBLE WITH WINDOWS
INSTALLER THAT SEEMS TO STOP RUNNING AND SO I CAN'T ANYMORE UPDATE OFFICE. I
TRIED TO RE-INSTALL IT BUT IN VAIN. I'M THINKING ON BUYING THE FULL SOFTWARE
FOR MYSELF OR AN UPGRADE TO FIX THE WINDOWS INSTALLER FOR GOOD! CAN ANYONE
TELL ME WHICH IS THE BEST OR ELSE?

THANKS.

Please do not use all capitals.

Windows Installer is part of Windows not Office so anything you do to Office
is very unlikely to fix installer problem. Look here:
