RE: Office Professional 2007 install

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Further, after I rerun the installer program and select repair and let the
program try to correct the problem it still gives me the msg that it can't
open InfoPath because of error 1605 and then trys to restart outlook in the
safe mode and gives me the same error and then it asks if I want it to start
"Detect and Repair" and when I click yes it trys to install Office Groove not
run detect and repair. How do I get around this and get Outlook to work?

What are you complaining about? You installed a beta product that has a
beta setup program on your production system despite the warning that MS
posted on the download page and in violation of the beta license
agreement (which states that you need explicit permission from MS to use
the beta in a production environment).
MS is providing the manual removal steps so you have a way of completely
removing the beta without having to reformat your harddrive..

BTW, the error message you receive is most likely not due to a failed
uninstall routine. It is more likely the case that you missed to remove
a component of the beta. The two most likely candidates are the PDF/XPS
add-in and the Expression Web Beta. See the appropriate error message on
my RTM issues page linked below.

I have the identical problem! Attended Birmingham launch yesterday - got
full product key - downloaded - uninstalled 2007 Beta - errors every time
telling me the beta is not uninstalled.

MICROSOFT - ARE YOU LISTENING? Your beta uninstall has trashed my machine
so that I'm unable to install full product. I called Microsoft at the
suggestion of the TS2 technician and was told that telephone support for the
product will not begin until January 31. I have not attempted the manual
uninstall referenced in your post and will do so now.

I attended the Tampa "ready for a new day launch 2007" last week and received
the necessary keys for free copies of Office Professional 2007 and Office
Groove 2007. I had previously installed Office Professional 2007 (BETA)
which was working fine. When I returned home and tried to uninstall the beta
version it wouldn't uninstall so I had to use the manual proceedures in
"support.microsoft.com/kb/928218" to uninstall it. I was then able to
install office pro 2007 but when I try to run Outlook I get error 1605. I
have downloaded the installer cleanup tool but it looks like it might
decommission many of my installed programs and gives no indication that it
will do anything to any left over beta information. Can anyone help me get
around this problem?
