Unable to de install Office Pro 2003

[Tony Clarke]

From the add/remove programs list i am unable to deinstall Office Pro 2003. I
get "Error 1606 Could not access network location". I have followed the help
document KB886549 and all my settings are correct. I then followed help
document 247501, "how to manually remove programs from the add/remove
programs list".
After following the procedure the program is removed from the list but is
replaced with a program of the same name and disk size but with a Microsoft
Word document icon and the change/remove buttons are no longer available.

How can i permanently remove Office Pro 2003. PS i do not have the original
installation CDs.

If you neither have the cd's or the program doesn't have an uninstall
feature you cannot, other than by simply deleting the program directories,
and this of course would leave you with a myriad of entries in the registry
and various files scattered in many win locations, and could lead to further
complications.

Removing a program from the Add/Remove list doesn't uninstall it.

Why don't you have the cd's? didn't you buy it or was it supplied
preinstalled, I assume it isnt a trial version.

Hi DL

yes the office was pre installed it is an entereprise version. I could
possibly go back to the original supplier but even if they had the CDs to
hand would that then get around the error 1606 ?

Do you also have any means of reinstalling win?

I'm unsure as to whether HP supplied recovery cd's or a recovery partition
for your model.
If you have neither then since the product key is likely an OEM version then
only HP could resupply the installation media

MS had a utility to remove Office2k, but I'm unsure whether such exists for
later versions of Office.
If not I dont believe an app such as Office can be uninstalled manually
(without the cd) Its probably that a complete format/reinstall of win would
be required.

Its likely Office was installed from a network location/Image and this is
why you get the error, If you had the cd you could use the install clean up
utility to remove all refferences to office, then Install(repair)/Uninstall
