Hi there,

How can I manually remove Office 16 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component 64-bit Registration?

I removed office 365 by following

https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Manually-uninstall-Office-2016-or-Office-365-4e2904ea-25c8-4544-99ee-17696bb3027b

and that is still not enough.

now I cannot reinstall it because of Office 16 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component 64-bit Registration

Thank you,

Robert

Hi Robert,

To completely uninstall your Office applications, we suggest you use the “easy fix” tool from this article.

To uninstall Office 16 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component 64-bit Registration, please try the steps below:

  1. Press Win + R to open the Run window, type “installer” and click Enter to open the folder in File Explorer.
  2. Add the column “Subject”. Right click the column headers, then click More and select Subject
  3. Sort on the Subject column and scroll down until you locate the name “Office 16 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component 64-bit Registration”.
  4. Right click the MSI file and choose uninstall.

    I've got the same problem, but a german version of Windows. So does anybody know the german name for the column "subject". The word "subject" is so unspecific, it could be anything, and there are lots of columns to choose from... ;-)

    Hi André,

    I wish I could be more precise, but I'm not sure what the exact word would be for that column; however, perhaps I can give you an idea by providing a list of suggested words (and like you said, "it could be anything"!) that are all used (in one form or another) in german for the word "subject":

    • (das) Thema
    • (das) Gegenstand
    • (das) Subjekt
    • (das) Motiv
    • (das) Fach
    • (das) Objekt
    • (die) Sache
    • (das) Sujet
    • (der) Untertan
    • (der) Stoff
    • (der) Grund
    • (das) Studienfach
    • (der) Staatsbürger
    • Staatsangehörige
    • unterworfen
    • untertan
    • unterwerfen
    • unterziehen
    • zerschlagen

    Sure hopes this helps! :-)

    Hello Wade,

    thanks for you answer but it didn't help either... ;-)

    In the meantime I found the answer. The german name of the column is "Betreff" - and this wasn't even part of your list! So for any other Germans in here: "Betreff" helps! :-)

    Thanx!

    File names look like this, 5a8f7b.msi, you will see "Office 16 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component 64-bit Registration" after hovering over the msi file.

    As per line 3: “Office 16 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component 64-bit Registration” is not in the list. Why not? It's the error I receive when I try to install Office 2016...
