    Hi!!

    I've installed MS Office 2007 with an "unattended installation".

    I thought it was gonna ask first for what apps I wanted to install, but it just installed everything.

    Now I have all apps taht I wont use, except Word and Powerpoint.

    Problem is: I CANNOT FIND WHERE'S OFFICE 2007 INSTALLED!!

    Shortcuts don't show anything abut their destination.

    Wheres is it and how much space is wasted???

    Thanks.

    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office

    or

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office

    on 64bit.

    But i think you can remove features in control panel.

    Haven't installed Office 2007 in quite a while but I think it doesn't ask what apps you wish to install. It assumes that since you purchased the version, you will want to install all the apps.

    However, you can go to Control Panel -> Program and Features and select Microsoft Office 2007 to make changes to the applications installed in your system.

    Ok.

    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12"

    But it is only 33 Mb !!!

    Does it use some kind of maskerade??

    And what if I wanted to install in another drive?? :(

    33Mb? hmm. no idea mines about 400MB with certain features.
    mine is in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12"

    If you want to install in another drive, don't use the unattended installation or configure the unattended installation thing.

    OK, thanks ZY.

    Next time I'll use retail copy, not 'unattended'. :)

    It's best to uninstall the applications via Programs and Features.

    Office 2007 installation

    Hi ! I have the same issue - mine went to the desktop (folder) and it won't let me open Office 2007. My daughter let me use her "3 computers can install this program" so I could use it for college classes. Since she only has one computer and mine is the second.....
    1) can I move the folder and it's contents to C:/Programs/Microsoft

    2) what do I do ?

    Get a copy of the Office 2007, uninstall the one on your PC, and install again. That's the only way IMHO.
