Arrgh - Office XP installer starting up each time
Corrosion - 2-19-2004 at 11:01 PM

Whenever I start Ejukebox, my Office XP installer starts. I always cancel it because i've got some corrupted files and I don't use Office XP anymore, but it loops over and over again. I leave Esc pressed so eventually Ejukebox starts... but why does that happen?

Sounds like the solution would be to uninstall OfficeXP. If you cannot uninstall it due to the corrupted files, then you have to install a new installation over the old (pereferably have the install archive in the exact same location as you had with the previous install), then eventually uninstall it again if you completely want to get rid of it.

well I did uninstall it, tried to manually delete any files left, but still have a corrupted folder at C:program filescommon filesmicrosoftoffice10something. I can try reinstalling it again tonight, but why does Ejukebox have to start the Office XP installer automatically anyways?

No, there should be no reason for this at all. But i have had similar problems with that damned Office installer before, without eJukebox ever being installed. And it was much the same then, that damned installer started up all the time for no apparant reason.
