Microsoft office professional 2013 encountered an error during setup

Trying to install the 32 bit version of Office 2013.  Planning to keep all my old versions.  I have Access 2002 and 2003 that I need.  Was not installing Outlook 2013 as Outlook 2010 is the only Office app that I care if I have issues with
and my IT dept controls a a bit more.  Getting the error "microsoft office professional 2013 encountered an error during setup" with no other info.  I have Windows 7, full admin rights, and closed all other Office apps.  I Just did a restart
which also installed all current Windows patches.  Got the same error. 
Any ideas or where to look for the cause?

I am having the same problem and am dead in the water. 
Just in case one of the suggestions might have worked, I went through all of those above with no luck.  At first the issue was that the preview version of the OSE was left behind by the uninstall, but I replaced it with the 2010 version, no dice. 
I then uninstalled all office products to get the OSE uninstalled, and setup now gets beyond that hangup, but still fails.  Following is the section of the log with the errors (MS email me for the full log):

  • Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013 encountered an error during setup

    (the html editor over here is a pain you know where - not even bold text is working...)
    Every time I try to install SP 2013 SP1 on my WS 2012 R2 Update virtual machine the installer dies.
    NOTE: I can reproduce this any time. Both the SharePoint 2013 (including SP1) .iso as well as the WS 2012 R2 (including Update) .iso are fresh copies out of the MSDN library.
    The installation fails where the installer tries to install the binaries. No configuration wizard yet. I made sure all the prerequisites are there. The PreRequisitesInstaller.exe reboots the virtual machine several times (twice) and then it is all set.

    UPDATE: Installing office prior to the sharepoint installation had no effect (solution was suggested  here).
    UPDATE: Installing all windows updates (for Windows Server and Office client applications) didn't help either... same error.
    UPDATE: I made sure my windows server and sharepoint server images are exactly those you can currently find on MSDN. SHA1 hashes match.

    I just did a Server 2012 R2 and SP 2013 w/ SP1 install the other night on Hyper-V running on 8.1 Pro without issues. ISO was from MSDN.
    Have you run a crc (or md5, forget what is used) to validate the ISO matches what MSDN says it should be?

  • Microsoft Sharepoint Designer 2013 encountered an error during setup

    I'm trying to install SharePoint Designer 2013 on my system, but I keep getting this error with no other detail.  Looking into the SetupExe log file that the event viewer pointed to didn't really identify anything that would point me
    to the culprit (or at least nothing I could decipher).  I am running Windows 7 (64 bit) and Office 2010 (32 bit).  Anyone run into this before?

    I am also trying to install SP Designer 2013 (32-bit) on my Windows 7 Pro 64-bit OS with MS Office 2010 32-bit and getting the same error about 30% into the install.  I have attempted to uninstall other 3rd party programs and apps for example Citrix
    and Skype and still no success.  I tried booting up in safe mode and get the same error right at the onset of the install.  
    Update:  Tried a "clean boot"  install and that also failed.

  • Microsoft office 2013 encountered an error during setup in Window 8.1

    Initially, I got microsoft office 2013 64bit standard version installed in window 8.1. However, it suddenly got errors when opening office, and closed the program automatically. Therefore, I uninstalled it, and tried to re-install office.
    However, I got the error "microsoft office 2013 encountered an error during setup" everytime when I try to install it.
    I tried 32-bit and 64 bit version, and tried to install in clean boot, deleted registry, and modified the folder name "Microsoft Help", but none of them works. 

    Make sure you completely uninstall previous versions of Office. There may be remnants left behind, even after you uninstall Office using the normal procedure. I recommend using the “Fix It” utility to uninstall Office 2013 completely. Please refer to this
    article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2739501/en-us you might also follow the manual steps provided on the same page.
    If you still having problems, re-registering the Windows Installer and checking permissions on the %TEMP% folder and the C:\Windows\Installer folder to make sure you have full-control. To re-register the Windows Installer run the following commands:
    msiexec /unregister
    msiexec /register

  • Microsoft LYNC Basic 2013 encountered an error suring Setup

    Dear Team,
    I have tried most of the suggestions provided on net.
    I have followed below steps as of now.
    1) Uninstall earlier version of LYNC.
    2) Deleted registry, & rebooted the system.
    3) Logged in with Administrator.
    Still I'm facing issues while installing Lync Basic 2013.
    Please note that I'm trying to install LYNC Basic 2013 on Windows 7 SP1 & Windows 8 systems.

    verify that you install correct version { for example of your office is 64 bit, Lync basic must be 64 bit} , Lync Basic 2013 is available on the Microsoft Download Center and comes in two versions:
    Microsoft Lync Basic 2013 (64 Bit)
    Microsoft Lync Basic 2013 (32 Bit)

  • Microsoft Office 2010 encountered an error during setup: With No error codes/

    Hello Everybody.
    I am trying to deploy Office 2010 on a windows 7 Machine.. This machine has more then what it needs for hardware to run the software so I know it is not hardware related. At the end of the Install the installers hestiates and begins rolling back and finally
    providing "Microsoft Office 2010 encountered an error during setup:" but does not provide any error codes what so ever.
    I have tried upgrading, Fresh installs, side by side installs, Safe mode, Clean boot, Local admin accounts and other domain accounts. I have also tried numerous so called "fixes" but still get nothing. Sadly after the 2010 install fails 2007 no longer works
    so each attempt is abit time consuming.  Any Ideas out there that might solve issue ?

    Hi,
    First try uninstalling all your Addins include connector to test the result.
    If not help, try the following steps:
    1) Create a new administrator account.
    2) Log on and launch the installer.
    If things don't quite work perfectly now:
    3) If you receive errors accessing your ProgramData folder, use the TakeOwnership registry hack to take control of the entire ProgramData folder, and if needed, create a "Microsoft Office"
    folder with "Microsoft Office 2010 Tools" inside it under %programdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu.
    4) Your error may return at the end of the installation, but don't worry, it's finished and Office is now installed. Switch user (don't log off!) and go back to your own user. Double-check
    that everything works. Now, to turn off your computer, press and hold the power button for five seconds. This will force the computer to shut down instantly, which will close the installer with the error without giving it the opportunity to roll back its changes.

  • Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 VBA error

    This question has been asked many times and I have yet to find an answer that actually works.  I am running Windows 7 Professional with Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010.  It has been working perfectly until now.  When I start Word I
    get the error "Microsoft Access 2010 requires Visual Basic for Applications.  If you continue, Visual Basic will be installed."  This then starts a series of uneventful installations one after the other until finally stopped and then an
    error report with instructions opens and talks about macro security settings.  This only happens when opening Word - not any other Microsoft Office programs.  By the way, changing those security settings did not work.
    I have tried all "fixes" offered and nothing has worked including registry changes and even Microsoft's Fixit.  What am I missing?

    Hi,
    I'm not quite sure what you have already tried. I would suggest you try to launch Word 2010 in
    safe mode and see if issue persists:
    Press Win + R and type "winword.exe /safe" in the blank box, then press
    Enter.
    Some have reported that it was caused by some third party add-ins and disabling all the add-ins fixed the issue. Please have a try and feel free to post back with any findings.

    Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 encountered an error during setup.
    The source installation package for the product Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 is out of sync with the client package. Try the installation again

    -Please help me with this. Thanks!

    Hello!
    I've tried to install Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 but when it finished the installation, this error message appeared:
    Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 encountered an error during setup.
    So, could you still open Office application even user get the error message?
    If you deploy Office suite by deployment tool or system center and meet the sync timeout issue, try to copy the installaion source to the local drive and reinstall it again.
    In addition, I think the link DushYant provided is also helpfule to you. Please check that. Thanks.

    not available on technet in PL version !!! All of the pages link to the technet (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/jj192782). Do you have direct link to TRIAL PL version ?

    Hi,
    I can download Office 2013 trial from the link that you provided. Is there any response after clicking the button of “Get Started Now”?

  • I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010, when clicking a link in Outlook I always get a General Failure box stating 'The system cannot find the file specified' yet it still goes to the specified page. Any ideas on how to resolve this

    I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010, when clicking a link in Outlook I always get a box stating
    General Failure. The URL was "http:// etc etc".The system cannot find the file specified.
    Yet it still goes to the specified page. Any ideas on how to resolve this

    I am having the exact same problem with Windows 7 Professional. Out of the blue, this issue just started a few months ago when running my monthly Windows Backup where I have used a USB drive for the last 3 years, and never ever had this issue before. Most
    of the solutions listed on the Microsoft websites and answers deal with
    "Restore" functions, not the
    "Backup" itself. I have 3 folders being skipped during the backup.
    So I went and changed the Backup from "let Microsoft choose files, directories, etc" to "Let me choose". I included the files and folders that were being skipped, and ran the "Backup" again, and got the same error message,
    but the files that were skipped the first time were "Backed up" finally. This issue is somehow related to my "Libraries"?
    The 3 backup problems are:
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book Recordings. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book CD Label-Cover Art. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book MP3 Tag Art. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Did a "checkdisk" - no problems. Ran a program to fix registry - no problems. All updates up to date. I guess I could eliminate these folders from the Backup folders in the
    Library, and just choose them under the "Users" locations, and be done with it. But I really want to understand this, and fix it. This is within Windows 7 and may be related to Windows Media Player or
    some recent Windows update.  Thanks.

  • Office Professional 2013 on Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials

    I installed Office Professional 2013 using emailed key - AAA-02768  * KEY ONLY EMAIL * Any attempt to run the installed software reports "
    Must have Volume Licence edition of Office"  I downloaded volume licence pack and get told my OS is not a VL edition.  What do I need to get Office 2013 running on this server?  One person will remote desktop into it, I purchased 5 RD licence
    as I was told this was essential.  I tried one solution downloading a trial, install from Install Application on Remote Desktop but that reported invalid key.  Can it run?  I know it is mainly a server, not a workstation, but surely Office can
    run on it.

    Hi Michelle,
    Where did you download the volume license edition of Office 2013? At what exactly point did you get the "OS is not a VL edition" message?
    Generally, to install Office 2013 on a server with RDS, you must have a volume license and you must use Office Professional Plus 2013 from the
    Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC).
    For more information about the volume licensing for your situation, you should contact your local reseller or Microsoft partner.

    I'm curious how you are running this code within excel as I would expect you would've had to write a dll to expose the SDK as COM in order to be able to access it from an excel document.
