Cannot remove programs from computer????

MADNESS · Mar 30, 2010

I did a crash and burn on my desk top with Vista on it. Done this several times over the last several years. Well I tried to install Microsoft office and it did not install correctly. So I went to remove it and it said "The administrator had set policies to prevent this installation." Then it says "You do not have sufficient access to uninstall Microsoft office. Please contact your administrator"

I have the computer set to where I am the administrator. What do I do?

It just means that Windows did not receive the proper uninstall info for the registry due to the incomplete install.

Reinstall MSO over again and then uninstall it..... or use The Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. If that doesn't work, download CCleaner.

if you need a program that uninstalls them properly then send me a PM

I have the best bit of software that can remove all little traces of crapware that plants itself all over your operating system
