Re: MICROSOFT OFFICE GONE?

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



What is a "non destructive recovery" mean ? Aside from that do you have a file named MSO Cache on your system.
If not then you are out of luck to do a Detect Repair of your Office install. If you do not have a Office Disk then you are out of luck. You might want to look into installing the Office 2007 Trial to get to your Data and to save it. Then purchase Office 2007 if you so desire and install it after removing the Office 2007 Trial and all remnants of the previous Office. I say that because I do not know which version of Office is installed which you are having the issue with.
You might want to post this to the microsoft.public.office.misc newsgroup

Hi Guys,

You are guys are so good at all my questions, so I thought I would drive
this one past you....

I recently did a system recovery--non destructive--and I can't seem to get
into Microsoft Word or any of the office programs....

I see the shortcut to them, but they don't open. "This action is only valid
for products that are currently installed." I never un-installed them, I
thought the came with Windows XP anyway.

No, as usual, this computer was given to me, and no, I don't have the
Windows XP discs, which I have never seen in anyone's possession.

What should I do? Do you guys have a link on the Microsoft Download site
that I can redownload Microsoft Office? Can I upgrade to 07 or anything?

Was I not looking hard enough?

Thanks guys and have a great day.

Regards,
Pikey
