Uninstall office

Question

I am trying to uninstall the MS office 2016 but dont have any option in the installed files on my system. How can I go about it?

Answer 1

To uninstall Microsoft Office 2016 when you don't see an option in the installed files, you can use the Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant (SaRA) to automate the uninstallation process. Here’s how you can do it:

1. Download the Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant: You can find it on the Microsoft website.
2. Run the Assistant: Open the application and select the option for uninstalling Office.
3. Follow the prompts: The tool will guide you through the steps to remove Office from your system.

Alternatively, you can also try uninstalling Office through the Control Panel or by using the Command Prompt with the appropriate commands if you are comfortable with that.

If these methods do not work, consider restarting your computer and trying again, as sometimes files may be locked by other applications.
