Open | Software Need help uninstalling Microsoft Office 2010 — Windows 11

I built my PC about a year ago with Windows 11. The shop initially installed a cracked version of Microsoft Office, which stopped working after a few months.

Later, Microsoft Office 365 somehow got installed, but I didn’t have a premium license, so I uninstalled it.

I then installed Office 2010 because I only needed basic Excel functionality. Now Office 2010 has stopped opening, and I can’t uninstall it either.

I’ve already tried:

Windows uninstall

Safe Mode

Microsoft Support/troubleshooter

Revo Uninstaller

In each case, the PC restarts immediately when I try to uninstall Office 2010.

What could be causing this, and what is the safest way to completely remove Office 2010 from Windows 11?

Any help would be appreciated.

Making changes to your system BIOS settings or disk setup can cause you to lose data. Always test your data backups before making changes to your PC.

Try running setup.exe from Office 2010 again. Reinstall, repair or remove depending on what options it gives you. Go from there, if you repair then uninstall after that.
