Default Office 2007 Re-install after Uninstall

Hi everyone


I was having some issues with Word so my brother told me to uninstall and then re-install Microsoft office to help fix it. I have Microsoft Office 2007 for Students. So I uninstalled it and now I am not able to re-install it! I still have my product key.
I went to the microsoft website to download it again, and ran it through installation but it gave me an error after I entered my product key and it aborted its installation! It said "Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 encountered an error during setup. Error 1406. Setup cannot write the value Class to the registry key...
I am in university and I really need my Microsoft Office working real soon! Any ideas on how I can get it back?!

That suggests you're using an out-dated installer. See: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/300451
Alternatively, you may be installing from a user account instead of from an administrator account. See: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/838687

See also: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928218 and http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Pr..._and_Uninstall

The simplest and quickest fix may be to use Windows' System Restore to restore your system to the state it was in before you uninstalled Office. FWIW, there is very little than uninstalling/reinstalling Office will fix that an Office repair won't.

Once you've done that - and you've repaired Word (eg via Word Options|Resources|Diagnose) - post a new thread in the Word forum about whatever issues you are still having with Word.
