Note: Ensure to restart the computer in normal mode once troubleshooting is completed.

Clean boot is performed to disable all startup programs and 3rd party services on the machine and check if they are conflicting with the Office program. If so, you may disable the unwanted software those conflict with the suite or get them updated.            

I hope the above information helps.

Hi,

Thank you for replying and it’s unfortunate that even after trying the steps you are unable to install Office 2013 suite.

Since the Office installation has failed, I would suggest you to run the fix it again to remove the traces:

Enable to Task Scheduler by following the steps below :

·         Click on Start and select Control Panel

·         Click on System and Maintenance> Administrative Tools> right click Task Scheduler and select Start

·         Confirm the changes and restart your computer if prompted.

Once the computer is restarted, right click on setup.exe file and choose Run as Administrator and try to install the program.

Let us know the result.
