I have been using Office 2000 on my computer since July of 2015. All of the sudden i get the following message when opening word, "required registry information is missing and this application cannot run. Please rerun setup to correct this problem".

I proceeded to reinstall office 2000 but during the install i get the following message.

"error 1904. module c:\ program files (x86) \ common files\system ole db\msolap.dll failed to register. hresult-2147024714. contact your support personel"

This started happening yesterday and office worked flawlessly until then. Now i can't work on my files anymore.

Why did it work and now doesn't? Is there a fix for it?

    Did this happen after an update, maybe it was done on purpose because some genius at MS found a way to get extra revenues

    Yes. I ended up doing a full restore of my computer and reinstall the original windows 8 and i blocked all updates from downloading on my computer.
