2007 BETA HAS SCREWED UP MY OUTLOOK

S

Sam

oK now that I have someones atteniton. I installed 2007 beta and had nothing
but trouble outlook kept crashing so I removed 2007 beta and reinstalled my
Office 2003 pro. I now am no longer able to open other users mailbox even
though I have full rights to they mailboxes. (using Exchange 2003)
I can open then folder if I go to advance settings on my exchange server and
try to add and email box I get the following "The Action could not be
completed"
I also get this in my event log

The MOF file created for the Outlook service could not be loaded. The error
code returned by the MOF Compiler is contained in the Record Data. Before the
performance counters of this service can be collected by WMI the MOF file
will need to be loaded manually. Contact the vendor of this service for
additional information.

I have removed my office installtion and Reinstalled it to no avial.

Sam. I feel your pain. I don't have any answers for you except that I
deeply regreat trying to run the 2007 Beta. It has screwed my system up
royally. I cant send/recieve email and no longer can save any calendar or
tasks. It is a total bumber!

Now you know why Microsoft says not to install beta software on any machine
where production data resides. If course, you made a backup of your PC
prior to installing, correct? Restore the backup.

I did the same thing and not only installed the Office Pro Plus 2007 Beta but
the Outlook 2007 beta as well.

I am unable to install Outlook 2007 and get an error message that tells me
some components are missing and to reinstall so I can later uninstall. I
can't even get back to my Office Pro 2000 and I'll probably l;ose all of my
email and contacts.
I tried backing it up (exporting) to a earlier version pst file but since I
can't get rid of the beta I don't know what to do.
I've been to majorgeeks.com and the worldstart message board but could get
no help.

Can anyone tell me how to get rid of Office Pro and Outlook 2007 betas and
get me back to where I started?

Not at all, especially if you did not convert your original PST to a Unicode
PST when you installed Office 2007. If you did convert it and cannot get
Outlook 2007 reinstalled, you may be correct..
I tried backing it up (exporting) to a earlier version pst file but
since I can't get rid of the beta I don't know what to do.

Exporting is not backing up. Copying the PST while Outlook is closed is
backing up.

You could do it by brute force and remove all references to Office 2007 from
the registry and then delete the Office folder tree. You'll leave some DLLs
behind, but I think it's likely they'll be overwritten when you reinstall
the older version.

I am receiving the same error message described above; I have NOT installed
2007 Beta. I can not find anything anywhere that tells me how to manually
load the MOF file, either. Does anyone have any idea how I can accomplish
this?
