SnowBall got a reaction from FreeThinkerMS in New Office 2019 Download Links
For Office 2019 to install and license properly you have to completely uninstall the previous version of Office and your stuffed-up Office 2019.
To uninstall office 2016-2019 C2R:
uninstall all office licenses through OSPP.vbs
uninstall Office through Control Panel
open CMD.exe as Administrator
schtasks.exe /delete /tn "\Microsoft\Office\Office Automatic Updates"
schtasks.exe /delete /tn "\Microsoft\Office\Office Subscription Maintenance"
schtasks.exe /delete /tn "\Microsoft\Office\Office ClickToRun Service Monitor"
schtasks.exe /delete /tn "\Microsoft\Office\OfficeTelemetryAgentLogOn2016"
schtasks.exe /delete /tn "\Microsoft\Office\OfficeTelemetryAgentFallBack2016"
Note: you will get an error if those scheduled tasks doesn't exist (its what you want)
taskkill /f /im OfficeClickToRun.exe
taskkill /f /im OfficeC2RClient.exe
taskkill /f /im AppVShNotify.exe
Note: you will get an error if those processes doesn't exist (its what you want)
sc delete ClickToRunSvc
Note: you will get an error if the service doesn't exist (its what you want)
close CMD
delete %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office 16\
delete %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\
delete %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\
delete %CommonProgramFiles%\Microsoft Shared\ClickToRun\
delete %ProgramData%\Microsoft\ClickToRun\
delete %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Office\ClickToRunPackagerLocker
Note: some files and folders won't exist as they were removed by the uninstaller.
open REGEDIT as Administrator
delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\ClickToRun
delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\AppVISV
delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Microsoft Office <Edition> - en-us
delete HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office
Note: some registry keys doesn't exist as they were removed by the uninstaller.
close REGEDIT
Go to http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/0/5/505878EB-FFC4-4DF0-A526-B1165BFA6C35/o15-ctrremove.diagcab
run the download and wait for it to complete.
restart your computer.
After its uninstalled, clean up the leftover files using a PC cleaning utility (e.g. CCleaner) and install your Office 2019. It should be working fine and you can activate it with an Office 2019 retail key.

SnowBall got a reaction from Nirav Narang in Get Windows 3.x Program Manager for Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10
Yes, it is from Microsoft and was the shell for Windows 3.x. If you have never heard of Program Manager... You probably never used Windows 3.x.
Do you not know how to extract zipped files and copy it to System32? Copy all the extracted files to System32 and SysWOW64! Launch progman.exe after that. Don't do the registry thing if you don't know what you are doing... I feel like you will mess up your computer if you set it as your default shell.
P.S: I might make a video on how to install or simply make an installer for "noobs" like you. Why would you bother trying this out if you don't know that it is (it is from 28 years ago when it was first introduced)? Also, you are on 64 Bit Windows 10, there will be issues with launching app using it.

@Hermanter
Sorry that I've been away for a few days, very busy. I am still trying to find a solution to the problem, what I've done so far is that I've downloaded the Office 2019 Volume Edition and I am trying to create a repack of it which will install without problems and can be activated using a volume key.
Usually, if you want to use a volume key, you would need a KMS server and I guess you don't have one... Very tedious.
P.S Add this line to your to your script:
<Property Name="AUTOACTIVATE" Value="1" /> and give it a try.
@Peter Frommann
Sure, if you don't want to install Access, Publisher and Groove, why don't you try this:
<Configuration> <Add OfficeClientEdition="32" DownloadPath ="https://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/492350f6-3a01-4f97-b9c0-c7c6ddf67d60"> <Product ID="ProPlusRetail"> <Language ID="de-de" /> <ExcludeApp ID="Access" /> <ExcludeApp ID="Groove" /> <ExcludeApp ID="Publisher" /> </Product> </Add> </Configuration> Regards,

Hi, have you uninstall Office 2019? What is the edition of Office you want to install (ProPlus, HomeStudent, HomeBusiness, Office365, Pro or single apps), in other words, which edition is your key for? Please tell me (Very important) Make sure you uninstall Office completely, restart your computer and try again.

Actually, do you have other versions of Office installed? if you do, they might be the cause of the problem.

Humm... thanks for the new link. From the screenshot, you will be installing a 64 bit version which is not recommended by Microsoft as it will cause problems with plugins, please consider change it to 32 bit even your are on 64 bit OS.
The code:
setup.exe /configure configuration-Office2019Enterprise.xml You need a bit of flexibility here, anyway it should work. Just want to make sure that you have the right edition, which edition did you buy? If it is not Pro Plus, comment below and I will get you a new code, if it is Pro Plus, then you are all good.

WindowsTH-RSAT_WS_1803-x64.msu, the 1803 is your build number and x64 is the bitness of Windows.

@Hermanter, are you blind?
Just kidding, the Volume License Pack will work!

SnowBall got a reaction from Nirav Narang in [Project] Windows 8 Pro with Windows 7 Shell
Hi Nirav, you are the first person to be interested in my project. Do you want to create an ISO file with the windows 7 shell integrated or just replace your VM's Windows 8 shell with the Windows 7 one? Anyway, they are basically the same thing, you will have to download the windows 7 ISO file from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7 or using the Windows ISO Downloader (Edition doesn't matter but architecture and language does) . After its done, find install.wim , go to your Windows 8 edition, find .\Windows\explorer.exe, .\Windows\en-us\shell32.dll.mui, .\Windows\en-us\explorer.exe.mui and copy them into a spare folder. The next step is to download Windows Explorer Wrapper file (wrp.dll) from here: https://tinyurl.com/ycc7okgw and place it with explorer.exe, now you have all files collected and you can replace the Windows 8 ones with those files and restart Windows Explorer. If you wanted to integrate it into an ISO, it would be extremely hard as its nearly impossible to find or download Windows 8 Disk Images from Microsoft, so go to torrents, warez websites and other places to find a copy then VERIFY the checksum to make sure it hasn't been modified. Then mount install.wim, replace files and unmount the wim file. Test your ISO file to be sure that is working.
This is very brief and if you don't under anything, comment below.
P.S: IT IS ILLEGAL TO DISTRIBUTE THE MODIFIED DISK IMAGE SO YOU CAN ONLY USE IT YOURSELF.
Thanks,

SnowBall got a reaction from Nirav Narang in We buy used Win 7 and Office 2010 licenses to improve reliability of the downloader
I don't think they will be useful to Jan as they are not retail keys. Jan need keys to unlock the downloads from the official download page and the number of machines it can activate doesn't matter.

SnowBall got a reaction from Nirav Narang in [Project] Windows 8 Pro with Windows 7 Shell
[PROJECT] Windows 8 Pro with Windows 7 Shell
In windows 8, Microsoft pushes all uses to login using a Microsoft Account, use the new modern user interface called Metro UI and the native Windows apps (Metro Apps). From Windows 7 to windows 8, this huge change in interface made the vast majority of people disapproving Windows 8 as they finds it extremely unfamiliar to use. You can easily find all sorts of workarounds on the internet to help you to stay as far as possible away from Metro UI, however the Metro UI was embedded so deeply into Windows 8 that its nearly impossible to avoid and Start menu was REMOVED (Not just hidden, can't be enabled).
So I started working on a project where it will produce a clean copy of Windows 8 with the good old Windows 7 Shell (with Start menu, no Charm Bar and no Metro apps).
I can promise that it is virus free and everything works the Microsoft way and you can activate this copy of windows using a genuine key.
If anyone want to try my customized build, please reply below and I will give you a download link of my latest work. If you find any bugs or have any thoughts, suggestions or ideas, please post below.
Screen Shots:

https://ibb.co/cGR7K9
FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY, DO NOT DISTRIBUTE.
Limitations:
- Metro programs won't run. Metro UI screens won't show as it's not loaded, cannot and won't be.
- You may get more UAC prompts since explorer.exe is not in Windows 8 UAC-approved white-list.
- You can't add new user. Run netplwiz.exe for that.
- File explorer icon won't show on Taskber. Pin it to Taskber by creating a shortcut and right click>Pin to Taskbar.
- No default language input indicator. Enable language bar via Control Panel->Language->Advanced Settings->Use desktop language bar.
- No multi-monitor Taskbars. Maybe more multimon issues.
- Future update might overwrite the Windows 7 Shell. Disable Updates recommended.
- A full online System Scan or Repair might overwrite the Windows 7 Shell.
Several UI bits missing:
- "You have new program to handle this stuff" toasts won't show. You need to use Default programs to change associations
