Hi!

I was trying to install MS Office 2007, but during installation process I faced an error with some weird characters with a start menu 2714 error.

Also I cannot uninstall my office 2003 either.

[I am attaching an error screen shot with my question]

Setup failed. Rolling back changes…

Please help me out of this anomaly.

Thanks in advance.

Hello John,

This error occurs when the previous version of Microsoft Office is still installed in your computer and you are trying to install the advanced version of Microsoft office. This happens usually in all the Microsoft products. So it is recommended that you fully uninstall the previous versions before installing the latest version. For assistance please follow the steps mentioned below:

1. Uninstall the old version of Microsoft Office you are using through the Control Panel.

2. Manually delete the files which are left behind after uninstalling.

3. Install the advanced version now.

You will face no problem this time.

Thanks.
