Manual Uninstall Office

L

Luke

How do you manually uninstall Office 2002. I need to clean out the registry
because I am still getting prompted for a password on my outlook PST file,
even though no pst file exists and I did a reinstall twice.
Thanks for any help as I haven't had a reply in several posts yet.
Sincerely,
Luke

Hi,

Uninstalling Office will not alleviate a password protected PST file. The
password is encoded in the PST file, not the registry.

Whoops! I may have mis-read your post... if the case is that you do not
have a pst file and it's asking for a password, why not create a PST file
and then remove it? That might give it the jolt to tell it "hey dummy,
there is no pst file". Unless you have a PST file set as your mail delivery
point, and aren't realizing it. I did that once :x

I did a search for *.pst on my hard drives (showing all hidden folders) to no
avail. My question for you is how do I create a new *.pst file. That's what
I was hoping for in my reinstall. I am getting prompted for a password on my
*pst account and for my Hotmail account (integrated with Outlook). I can't
get into Outlook otherwise to create an account. It brings me to the default
folder view.
Any other suggestions?

By default Folder View I assume its showing 'Personal Folders'? and any
attempt to access this gives password error? If you select Personal Folders,
what do properties indicate?
Tried, in OL, File/New/Data Folder?
