Hi there something wierd is happening here. I am on Windows 8.1 Update 1 Pro and everything worked perfect until I - Installed Office 365 - Uninstalled Office 2010 Now everytime I try to start a programm I get an error C:\Programm Files\..... - you don't have enough rights .... I am running as admin user but the only way to start the programm is right click and "run as admin" What's going on and how can I change that. Did I loose admin rights somehow or somewhere
Weird man, did you just update to 8.1 update 1? if no, then try and hit a restore point before uninstall of off 365.
You have remove ALL remaining Registry entries of any MS Office Version FIRST! We had that problems quite often by our customers and the fastest way is the manual editing of the Registry using both Apps as I described, starting with Registra Registry Manager! Also, I forget to mention, delete the entries manually from the folders /PragramData and /Users/[username]/AppData! Both folders are Hidden, you need to change the view to Show Hidden Files and Folders!
Means: down Windows, switch off the computer and while is off wait 10sec, still have switch off and push the start button for to discharge the PSU and MB. Switch the PSU ON and start the computer! While doing that way, ALL cache is deleted as well, so nothing left in any memory!! Sorry Paul, that's even better than just a reboot!
anyway, I see no reason for a hard restart because it is simply software related stuff and real electrical shutdown has no influence on registry entries. Final result will be the same though
Since when you expect something to be perfect?! I'm just an very imperfect human and therefore do what I've learned over the years by not expecting something have to do all times what I want! And just to mention, a Warm Boot could still keep some memory in work like Cache! Don't need, just could have some effect! It's just to be on the safe site! What's wrong with that?
That error is more likely caused due to loading partially obsolete and broken Registry entries. Installing two Office products can cause terrible damage to Registry and isn't even recommended by MS themself. OP installed that crappy 365 before uninstalling 2010 .
Rebooting Windows will remove all cache memory. Certain hardware devices do retain information though. I know you have to fully power off a system when updated a video card bios, and probably other things as well.
Yep, office is confusing that way. When you install a newer version of office it mentions upgrading, then it leaves the existing one installed. I noticed that while upgrading a family member's system from O2010 to O2013
Thanks guys - I did as you said - lets see how this works out. I tried install 365 next to 2010 cause I wanted to try how and if it works
