| | Removing Pre-Loaded Trial Software When I bought this computer it had Trial Versions of several Microsoft programs. One was MS Office 2007. I've tried to remove this and some of the other programs, and I get the "error code 2755", and cannot remove them. Some are sizeable and I would like to recover the space. Any ideas would be appreciated. |

| | Re: Removing Pre-Loaded Trial Software Before I go through this removal, I'm running MS Office 2003 Professional. Will this be affected? Also, I've checked to be notified when someone responds, which MS does and sends a link. When I try to go there, it doesn't take me anywhere. Any suggestions?? Obviously I'm new to The Communities Discussions. slider638@xxxxxx "DL" wrote: Quote: > http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928218/en-us > > "Slider638" <Slider638@xxxxxx> wrote in message > news:FC4F285D-5CF9-4436-B6BF-433189D70E80@xxxxxx Quote: > > When I bought this computer it had Trial Versions of several Microsoft > > programs.

| | Re: Removing Pre-Loaded Trial Software I'm trying to uninstall: "Activation Assistant for the 2007 Microsoft Office Suite" which was on the machine when I purchased it. My OS is Vista Home Premium. When I try to uninstall through control panel, the full error msg is: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2755." I have installed MS Office Professional 2003, and since the 2007 was a trial offer I don't want to change.

| | Re: Removing Pre-Loaded Trial Software You should have uninstalled ALL of Office 2007 Trial, before installing Office 2003! I am surprised 2003 even installed correctly, doing it the way you did. And you don't say what email program you are using . -- Mick Murphy - Qld - Australia "Slider638" wrote: Quote: > Before I go through this removal, I'm running MS Office 2003 Professional. > Will this be affected? > Also, I've checked to be notified when someone responds, which MS does and > sends a link.
