    I have the same problem but with a new computer running windows 8. I have downloaded MS Office 2013 but when I try to install from the setup.exe folder it displays a message asking if I want to access Microsoft bootstrapper and the I agree and error is 'module not found'

    I'm also having issue with this. I had office 2010 installed, and I tried installing 2013 but it gave me this error. I went into my installed applications and tried removing Office 2010 and 2013, which worked, but then I tried installing again but it didn't work! It gave me this lovely message "Microsoft office professional plus 2013 encountered an error during setup."

    I've tried a lot of things. I'm just going to return it since I can't even get it installed! Arg. Office 2010 tried and true.

    Well, it failed and one more thing. I downloaded another preview setup file via torrent as direct download failed for me but it was polish. I downloaded language pack and tipscreen pack and installed it but still when i right click on the desktop ->new -> instead of new document it says something in polish and the same in microsoft tools.
