These issues often occur due to corrupted configuration files, leftover components from older Office versions, or insufficient administrative permissions. Incorrect version references inside the XML file or running the setup without elevated rights are also common triggers. To fix this issue, you need to completely remove all previous Office components and install Office again using a freshly generated configuration file. This ensures that no corrupted leftovers or outdated paths interfere with the new installation. Follow these steps carefully:
Step 1: Uninstall Office and Remove All Leftovers
Step 2: Clear Temporary and App Data Folders
Step 3: Generate a Fresh XML Configuration File
Step 4: Install Office with the Deployment Tool
