Installing Microsoft office 2007 on your pc is an easy process if you know all the steps to take. Here is a step by step guide to help you get through the entire process smoothly.
Step 1
Insert the Microsoft office disk into the disk drive and wait for a setup wizard to get displayed on the screen. This should happen automatically. However, if the setup wizard does not display on the screen after a while you will have to launch it yourself. Simply click on ‘’start’’ then go ahead to select ‘’Run’’, afterwards type ‘’D:\setup.exe’’.
Step 2
You will be prompted to enter the product key. Type the characters of the product key and then proceed to click on ‘’continue’’. If you do not know where to find the product key just check inside the product package, on the casing of the disk. You can also check in the confirmation email of your purchase. It is usually 25 characters.
Step 3
Make sure to read well the Microsoft software License terms and accept before clicking on ‘’continue’’. You will not be able to move to the next step without accepting the software license terms.
Step 4
Depending on the type of installation you want, you can choose to select ‘’upgrade’’ or ‘’custom’’. If you already had an earlier version and want to replace it with Microsoft office 2007, you should click on the ‘’upgrade’’ icon. However, if you don’t want to get rid of the already existing version go on ahead and select ‘’custom’’. So that you do not lose the previous versions, after selecting ‘’custom’’ click on the radio button and afterwards on the ‘’installation options’’. Finish by selecting ‘’run all from my computer’’.
Step 5
It may take some time before the entire installation process is complete. You may have to wait for up to 30 minutes before it gets installed.
Step 6
When the installation is complete, the setup wizard will notify you that the process was successful. Go on and click on the ‘’close’’ icon.
Step 7
You will have to activate your Microsoft Office 2007 so that the programs can be fully functional. Go to the various Microsoft office 2007 products and launch them. To launch and activate from the Microsoft office products such as excel, word or PowerPoint simply click on the Microsoft office button on your screen. Go to ‘’options’’ and then click on ‘’activate Microsoft office’’. If you’re having trouble activating your Microsoft office 2007, you may contact support for further help.
If you want to activate your software over the internet, there is an option for that and all you have to do is to select that option and afterwards click on next.
Step 8
Once the activation process is successfully completed, a notification will appear on the screen informing you. Proceed to click on ‘’close’’ and then on ‘’OK’’. You are now done with the installation of your Microsoft office 2007.
