Re: Unable to uninstall 2007

Hi, I tried this method and in the registry, it still won't let me uninstall
Microsoft Office 2007. It gives me a message "Windows Installer - preparing
to remove" but then an error "this patch package could not be removed..."
Help, I am getting nowhere fast. Cindy

I was running Office 2003 and decided to try the 2007 Beta. I installed and
ran successfully, but when the beta was up I uninstalled and 2003 would no
longer work. I tried to re-install twice and both times the installation
of
2003 failed. So I checked Add/Remove and there is an instance of 2007
Beta
Pro but when I click uninstall it tells me that my computer does my
computer
does not support the package language. I tried to download and install
the
2007 Trial, but it won't install because it sees another instance(that I
can't remove) and won't install.
