[SOLVED] Problems with Windows update and corrupt system files...

Hi Aura,
last days I had big problems repairing the MS Office 2010. I then tried to uninstall it completely and just now even upgrading it to Office 2013, but I was unfortunately not successful. As it seems there are some problems with the Ownership of some registry keys... I changed the ownership of some of them to (Administrators), and then the installation program went further each time, but there is so many of such keys, that I gave up eventually. Is there a way that I could uninstall Office 2010 in a faster way?

Cheers,
Matija
 
What error code/message are you getting when you try to uninstall Office 2010? Did you ever use PC Optimizer or Registry Cleaner programs?
 
Yes, I have used Uniblue Powersuite occasionally.

The errors that I got in the uninstaller (and installer) were of type: "Setup cannot open the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE32\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\accicons.exe. Verify that you have sufficient permissions to access the registry or contact Microsoft Product Support Services (PSS) for assistance. For information about how to contact PSS, see PSS10R.CHM." If I then changed the Ownership of that key to Administrators and allowed Full Permissions to it, the installer then went over that point and then stopped at some latter very similar error.
 
You should stop using such programs since they only cause issues and rarely do anything good to a computer :)

Follow the instructions below please.

Hi Aura,
thank you very much for all your help and patience! The problems are now solved. The Uniblue Powersuite is already deleted from my computer. :)
