7. Right-click on this key and click Delete to delete those keys.
8. Open Windows Explorer, and then browse to the "C:\Program Files" folder
If it exists, rename the "Microsoft Office" to "Microsoft Office OLD"
If it exists, rename "OfficeUpdate" to "OfficeUpdateOLD"

9. Click Start menu-> Run, type "%Temp%" (without the quotation marks) in

Note: If some files can't be deleted, please skip them, which don't
