I then went and ran the install for the stand-alone installer for SP2 for the 64 bit version of Office 2010. I went ahead and left the MSOCache folder alone. Once it was complete I registered the software. I then rebooted, and installed Office 2010 圆4 using my old DVD (the one that had SP1 built-in). Well, I did some testing, and I feel that part of the issue relates to the presence of the MSOCache folder. My install media came with SP1 already built-in (I downloaded it directly from Microsoft). My Office Version is Office 2010 Pro Plus 圆4 with SP1.

Looks like I'll have to figure out how to bake SP2 into my Office 2010 media, and just install it that way.īy the way, I'm running Windows 8 Pro 圆4. Still, it looks like I'm not the only one who has deleted the MSOCache folder (and I can bet that a lot of other people have to), so this is going to be a big issue for Microsoft. There was a work-around for that which involved copying the entire CD to your hard drive, and then changing a registry value to point the installer to the local directory. I think it was Office 2000 (or maybe 2003) that actually needed the CD in the drive every time you installed an Office update. I know that in the past, installs of Office updates, and service packs have been odd, in the fact that the source media in some form or fashion, has been required.


For reference, the full path to where the file "ProPlusWW.msi" is suppose to be isĬ:\MSOCache\All Users\-C\ProPlusWW.msi which I don't have locally anymore (as I said in a previous post, I deleted that whole folder after I installed Office 2010). When I went and ran the install, I got the dialog box as shown in Picture #2. My "About" information is shown in Picture #1. Not sure if my issues are the same as kherr, but I could not get it to install either.įirst, I believe I'm running the same version as they are. Since I'm running the 64 bit version of Office 2010, I used the 64 bit install file, which is called Well, I just went ahead and did the install from the files I downloaded from Microsoft.
