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.
Microsoft office was working fine. Then I was prompted within outlook, within ribbon, to update by click button. I got the message something went wrong. Now none of my Office products work. Usually Microsoft updates are painless. Now I am suppose to unload and reload the entire suite. Users should have been given more information about the update. This is a major pain.
If I m just renewing, it does not make sense to uninstall and re-install
