Upgrading Office Pro Plus 2010 Beta to Office Pro Plus 2010

D

Douglas J. Boehme

I have a copy of Office Pro Plus 2010 Beta and would like to upgrade it to
Office Pro Plus 2010 (both downloaded from Technet subscriber downloads).
When I try to install Office Pro Plus 2010, it seems to indicate that I can
not upgrade 2010 beta. Is there a way that I can do this or at least export
my Outlook settings so that I can uninstall the beta, install the RTM and
restore my current Outlook settings (accounts, multiple calendars, data
files, etc).

What makes you think you need to export your Outlook settings?
Uninstalling Office has no Impact on the Outlook Profile or its settings, or
its data

Uninstall all Office Family 2010 beta bits (this includes the beta hotmail
connector). Verify that the MSOCache folder is gone at the root of your C:\
drive (its a hidden folder). Install Office 2010 RTM and your done.

The other poster is correct that user preferences, outlook profile, user
data files, .etc are not touch/removed when uninstalling the beta bits and
this is fine.

If I uninstall the beta will the new x64 pickup the data files from outlook? email messages, contacts, etc.,?

or will those file be lost?
