Hi Naman,

If you receive this error:

Something went wrong. Sorry, we ran into a problem. Go online for additional help. Error Code 30088-4

Use this article to remove Office and then try installing it again.

    I finally got my Office 2013 problems thoroughly cured by calling Microsoft Office Support.  The technician worked for over an hour and left me with a beautifully function system.

    I keep getting that same error.  However, I installed the program from Microsoft itself online and do not have disks so I don't know how I can uninstall and reinstall if I don't have the actual disks.  Please help me.  All programs were working beautifully and the other day it just stopped.  Thank you very much.

    I can't find my error code.  I have a brand new computer with the latest window version, I guess 8.1.  I am not happy and have tried to run this program several time but keep getting the error.  I don't see the abbvy fine reader.  Will someone at this company help me.
