Cannot Install Office 2007 beta 2

J

JoAnn Paules [MVP]

There was a warning before you downloaded the beta about running it on a
non-production system and many of us have repeated that warning in this
newsgroup.

Gee thanks for that.
Too bad if I do have essential data that cannot be lost tho.
Anyone got any constructive comments to make?
Thanks

Since you installed Office 2007 on a non-critical machine with no
essential data that cannot be lost, simply roll back to a restore point
or restore your backup image.

Oh hohohoho! If you think that will work with Beta2TR, you have a really rude awakening waiting for you. There is a specific warning that it will NOT work with B2TR.

And as for the OP, learn to read and understand the warnings before you try beta software.

Thanks Kelly, the Windows Install Cleanup utility sorted it - I had to clean
up the registry afterwards but that's OK.

Milly,
That utility took care of stuff for me; after I had uninstalled BT2R

Oh hohohoho! If you think that will work with Beta2TR, you have a really
rude awakening waiting for you. There is a specific warning that it will
NOT work with B2TR.

And as for the OP, learn to read and understand the warnings before you try
beta software.
