When I try to download Office Home & Business 2013, I'm getting this error. 

I can not find Office on my computer, however it's listed in my programs.  When I try to uninstall it I get the following error.

I need to get this installed and setup. 

Thank you!

    I had the same issue. I have tried only LAN and did not work. We have 2 wireless at work, one has 255.255.254.0 subnet and one has 255.255.255.0 subnet which did work fine after switching to it (2nd one).

    Thanks Ms. Nayana,

    Since you are with Microsoft, please guide me as to why I am getting the following Error Codes, in sequence:

    1. "Something went wrong" while uninstalling & re-installing -recently purchased (on 24-Aug-2016) Office-365 Home on my laptop, as I found to my surprise when Word, Excel etc. stopped working all of a sudden, since 22-Oct-2016 morning.
    2. As per the suggestion of Mr.Bromley_86 replied on Jan 11, 2016 here in Discussion Panel, how to overcome Error Code: 30068-4(1058), I did exactly the same: Microsoft Click-to-Run enabled.
    3. For following this suggestion, now I am getting another Error Code: 30174-4(32) !

    Please convey to Mr. Bill Gates, on my behalf, to first organize Microsoft based on Business Ethics and Customer Satisfaction as two pillars supporting this edifice, rather than greed, profit-at-any-cost attitude of this crumbling enterprise, with an army of dis-satisfied Customers Worldwide.

    After hours spent on this, I finally managed to resolve my issue by deleting the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office. At first i was unable to delete this folder as files were in use, even in safe mode. The trick is to rename the folder, e.g. Microsoft OfficeOLD and then reboot the machine, i was then able to delete the folder and install Office!

    Good luck!
