Uninstalling multiple versions of Microsoft Office

I’m having difficulty with Office2007. C= vista D= XP Pro both C&D both have the Office 2007. Can I safely delete O7 from “D” then re-install Office XP in that partition? I have the original CD.

You certainly can although we’d be reluctant to advise you to wipe the Office 2007 folder given the potential problems it can create.

We’d recommend you uninstall Office 2007 from both versions of Windows through the Control Panel as we’ve discussed previously. Note that uninstalling from one will affect the other.

It’s probably best to uninstall all versions of MS Office, then run a registry cleaner and finally reinstall Office XP.

Keep in mind that deleting folders and changing registry settings can cause problems for your computer. If you have any problems you should contact a technician for proper advice and service.
