I installed Office 2007 besides Office 2002 and it works good as well as
Office 2002.
I have tried to delete the Office 12 registry keys via Regedit and deleted
the catalog for office 2007. Not a good idea! Windows doctor found 390 faults
so I rolled back with Goback. Cleansweep will not touch Office 2007 with a
pair of tongs...
I would not be happy to reformat and I have no revert positions before
installing Office 2007.
Will Ms cleaning utility work with office 2007?
Have you read the Help files ? It should tell you how to uninstall the Beta

If you deleted the registry entries for Office then the installer may not be able to find the program so that it can uninstall it.
Many of the 3rd party 'registry cleaners' unfortunately break applications doing the 'cleanup' as well. If that software or the MS
Windows XP Powertoys, such as TweakUI
http://microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx
can't remove the entry, then you may want to restart the PC, install Office 2007 back to the original location then do an uninstall.

Thanks for your answer. I have not found any solution. My problem is that the
link for Office 2007 under control panel, Add or remove programs, doesn't
work. I have run Office diagnostics with no identified problems. I guess that
I need to manually remove Office 2007 but have not found any piece of advice
in the help files. >>

LINKS for the 2007 Office System
1. Read about it, try it, or watch the movie :)
the 2007 Microsoft Office system iinfo is at
http://microsoft.com/office/preview
2. Already have 2007 Office System Beta 2?
Send Microsoft your feedback (with pictures)
http://sas.office.microsoft.com/
3. Use the 2007 OfficeOnline website without Office2007
a. Install the ActiveX access control
http://office.microsoft.com/search/redir.aspx?AssetID=XT101650581033
b. then visit http://officebeta.iponet.net
As I rolled back my hard disk the installation is exactly as it was after
first install. I have also restored all registry entries Ace utilities has
cleaned. Still the entry in Add/Remove doesn't work. It says there is no
program to install. I cannot reinstall either - I hoped this should create
uninstall info. All info I've found in regedit points to the correct
installation path. But have not found to where the uninstall entry points.

As for deleting folders, if you aren't 100% positive you know what they are,
don't delete them.

I wonder: how can I tell if this folder is a remnant of Office 2007
download? I had 100% successful defrad prior to the office 2007
download. How can I make sure absolutely every vestige and remnant of
that download is washed from my hard drive?
Thank you,
Stephanie Trapasso

The critical question really is why you want to get rid of it 100%. If,
as JoAnne suspected, you weren't allowed to install this beta on your
computer, then it comes down to how thorough the computer will be
inspected. Quite frankly, the only way to get through a really thorough
inspection is to reformat and reinstall the entire system. That will for
sure wipe every trace of Office 2007 from it.

To be brief, I put Office 2007 beta on a new system. No other installations
of office on this box. Because Office was actually running so well I decided
to use it for something important. (40 lashes with a wet power cable for
being that stupid.)
Fast forward to today. I've done everything to remove office 12 through the
regular methods, and through what was suggested in a MS post. No luck. I
installed the Installer cleanup utility and it blows up with a runtime error,
and a system error. I can't get past that.
Of course, I can't simply reinstall 2007. I'm getting the 2711 error on that.

1) Uninstall all existing Office 2007 suites and/or standalone apps via the
Control Panel, if possible.
2) Go to Start/Run and type "installer" (w/o quotes). This will bring up the
Windows Installer directory.
Change to "Details" view if you are not in that view. If you don't have
"Subject" as a header, then right click on the headers in the directory,
click more, then choose "Subject" so you can see the Subject information for
each item in that directory.
3) Sort by Subject and observe any items that contain Microsoft Office 2007.
For each Office 2007 item listed, right click on the msi and choose Uninstall.
4) Check Services and stop the Office Source Engine service if it is running
5) Delete the following registry keys if present (the asterisk is a wildcard
representing any string of one or more characters):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\12.0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Delivery\SourceEngine\Downloads\*0FF1CE}-*
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\*0FF1CE*
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ose
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Features\*F01FEC
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\*F01FEC
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\UpgradeCodes\*F01FEC
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Win32Assemblies\*Office12*
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UpgradeCodes\*F01FEC
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products\*F01FEC
6) Find and delete all keys under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
with a valuename of UninstallString that contains a value with
*\Office Setup Controller\setup.exe*
7) Delete the following folders (if present):
%CommonProgramFiles%\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12
%CommonProgramFiles%\Microsoft Shared\Source Engine
%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office12 (this is the default location
but can be changed during the installation)
%appdata%\Microsoft\Document Building Blocks
%appdata%\Microsoft\Templates
On all drives remove all folders below the MSOCache\All Users folders
containing the string *0FF1CE}-*
8) Clear the content of your temporary files directory (go to Start/Run and
type %temp%)
9) Reboot
10) Temporarily disable antivirus software and related services
Once you've completed these steps, you should be able to successfully
reinstall Office 2007 and the B2TR update.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Prior to installing the B2TR update(s), you should first
install all desired Off2007 applications, or a 2711 error will occur. This is
documented in the 2007 Microsoft Office System Beta Known Issues/ReadMe at
http://officebeta.iponet.net/en-us/products/FX101517941033.aspx (see the
"Setup (client)" section).
