Uninstalling the expired Office 2007 Beta
Rahul 3/7/2007 8:35:23 AM
I am having a tough time uninstalling Office 2007 Beta which I installed
earlier, & which has expired.
Well, the problem is that the uninstall requires file
Pro.WW\Setup.xml, which it cannot find, & so it simply does not uninstall
the Beta.

So, can anyone guide me what to do????

Even after uninstall, if there are any problems of leftovers of beta
versions , which cant be removed then Check this KB article and follow the
steps:

There are still problems left.
And is it practical to go out hunting for every registry entry manually,
especially when the entry to search has been given as a Regular Expression????
