I have had office 2010 for about two months and have some issues with freezing etc and I wanted to re-install it. My concern is if I re-install will all my e-mails and contacts be lost?

Also how do I go about re-installing it while keeping contacts and word files etc, just put the disk in the drive and launch or some otherway.

Thank you,
Steven

Hi Steven,

Your data should be retained (though it's always a good idea to make backups). Rather than reinstalling, have you tried repairing Office, either via the Control Panel or via, say, Word Options|Resources|Diagnose?
