@echo on
cd /d c:\temp
if not exist %windir%\system32\wbem goto TryInstall
cd /d %windir%\system32\wbem
net stop winmgmt
winmgmt /kill
( function() {
if (window.CHITIKA === undefined) { window.CHITIKA = { 'units' : [] }; };
var unit = {"calltype":"async[2]","publisher":"msquicksolver","width":550,"height":250,"sid":"Chitika Default"};
var placement_id = window.CHITIKA.units.length;
window.CHITIKA.units.push(unit);
document.write('');
}());

%1 /RegServer
:SkipSrv
goto End
:TryInstall

Ahmed
Great, works for me! After 6 hours of testing all different solutions, this script did it for me!
ReplyDeleteTHANK A LOT :)
didn't work for me in a network enviroment
ReplyDeletedidn't work for my anyway, error is given but microsoft solutions don't follow them.
ReplyDeleteGreat work.. My friend.. perfect.. i was not able to install office in windows 2008 R2, and able to do it.. just with the script..
DeleteThanks man .. Great work..
I'm sorry to say this hasn't worked for me, nor have the 9 pages of suggestions from the answers.microsoft.com website. I'm ready to give up and use OpenOffice, though I know it's horrible. Microsoft, I can't believe you won't properly fix this -- I wasted money on Office 2010 and I can't even use it, and now I no longer have my 2007 installation. I should've stuck with the 5 year old Office 2007 -- at least it installed and worked. This sickens me.
ReplyDeleteYou are a lifesaver, had been trying to install for months with no success. Thankyou
ReplyDeleteVERY NICE SIR!!! Spent 4 hours trying Microsoft fixes and nothing worked... Your suggested repair steps fixed it. Much thanks!
ReplyDeleteI've been trying to find a fix for this problem for three months!!
ReplyDeleteWindows XP SP3 + Office 2010 Professional Plus SP1 x32
Finally:
Deleting the Microsoft Help folders, not just re-naming them.
Stopping and disabling the print spooler service.
Creating and running the Wmireset.bat file as above
Restart
Install Office 2010 successfully!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU - THANK YOU
Perfect .. for office 2010 in windows 2008 R2
ReplyDeletework great ..
Great work..
Thanks
Thank you! The script worked, and saved me from pulling my hair out. Installed Microsoft Office 2010 Professional on Windows 7 64-bit.
ReplyDeleteYou are a champ! Thanks for the help!
ReplyDeleteain't u awesome :)
ReplyDeleteawesome mate! good work
ReplyDelete10x! Worked with Microsoft Office 2007 Pro on Windows 7 64 bit.
ReplyDeleteI have been battling this issue for 3 days. I was doing an Office 2010 to 2013 upgrade. After the first failed upgrade I could not remove, repair or run Office 2010 any longer. I tried at least 20 other fixed with no luck. This method worked perfectly!!! Thank you very much!
ReplyDeleteThis worked perfectly. No script needed. No phone activation needed as well, EZ-Activator did the job along with the steps outlined above. Again, I did not have to mess with the WMI script, just fyi
ReplyDeleteAWESOME!!! I was fighting with this for hours. This worked perfectly.
ReplyDeleteSuper!
ReplyDeletechecked if Msinfo32 was working normally, which it didn't.
Made the batfile and ran it accordingly.
Rebooted the machine and voila, perfect installation of Office 2010std on a WinXP device.
Thank you very much!
It worked!! thank you so much
