SKU112.cab missing

T

Timoteo

I recently activated the Trial Verison of Office 2003 on my new HP. Was
working great until I got a Virus that was detected and removed by MacAfee.

Since then when starting EXCEL, the windows Installer activates and then
gives an error saying SKU112.cab is missing and I need to insert the disk or
select the directory where the file is located. All other Office programs are
OK (Mail, Word, etc.)

I don't have CD .. Trial already installed on PC when purchased.

I followed HP & Micorsoft instructions to no avail .. really seems like I
need the file.

ANY IDEAS ? ?

Since the trial version is just a *trial* version...........buy the full
version, uninstall the trial and install the full version.

If you do not have the installation cd and want to solve this issue
follow these steps: (works most of the time with all sku.cab files)

1. Click on start==>run==>type "excel /s" without quotations and click
ok.

2. Once Excel is up in safe mode with the error message in front, hold
down ctrl+Alt+Delete keys on your keyboard to bring the task manager up.

3. Click on the processes tab==>look for msiexec.exe (only the one next
to your user name), click on it and end the process.

4. Excel should be running without an error message now==>close Excel in
safe mode==>reopen it one more time in safe mode to check if it is
opening with no error message.

5. Close Excel /s and open Excel normally, it should work fine.
