Uninstall Office
in [Microsoft Office]

From: ChrisK on 11 Apr 2010 09:25 Question: How can I uninstall MS Office Enterprise on a desktop I will be getting rid of so I can re-install it on the new computer I plan on buying? Background: I have MS Office Enterprise 2007 on currently installed on four machines but had to re-install it on two of those machines for a total of 6 installs. On the six install I had problems activating because it had gone over the 5 license limit and had to contact MS to get a non-commercial product key.

As any normal application. Control Panel-Uninstall..... Why would you think it to be any different? > > Background: I have MS Office Enterprise 2007 on currently installed on > four > machines but had to re-install it on two of those machines for a total of > 6 > installs. Re-installing on the same machine is NOT an "additional" install and does NOT "use up" an additional licence. > On the six install I had problems activating because it had gone > over the 5 license limit see above. I suspect the "problem" you had was trying to re-activate too soon after the initial activation. Telephone activation would have (usually) solved the problem... > and had to contact MS to get a non-commercial > product key. Eh?

From: ChrisK on 14 Apr 2010 06:24 I understand that using the control panel is the normal way to uninstall any application. That is only part of what the question asked. I also need to somehow release the license when I uninstall. I had to re-install on the same two machines for various reason's but indeed it is a new install / activation. Each activation has come several months apart, but it does seem to keep track of how many activations you have accomplished. Telephone activation is what was accomplished on the sixth install and they gave me a key that when any Office product is launched, the title bar displays "non-commercial use".

Is there a question in here somewhere?
