offfice installatin corrupt

D

Daniel L Newhouse

My office installatin has been corrupted. Office itself works find
but I cannot "change" or "remove" and I cannot update anymore either.
According to the error message, the MSP files in the Windows\Insaller
directory can no longer be found.

I think what I need is a long, painful, manual removal procedure for
Office. Then I can reinstall it.

Thanks. I also want to delete all the files in Program
Files\Microsoft Office before I reinstall. The problem is, there are
two files "MLSHEXT.DLL" and "MSOHEV.DLL" in Microsoft Office\Office10
that Windows will not let me delete. Do you know how I might get rid
of them?

I was able to figure this one out. I used regedit and
deleted the registry keys corresponding to these files and
rebooted. Yipee!
