If you see a different code but the same error message, don’t worry — the fixes below should still help.
What’s Causing This Error?
During Installation: This usually happens if the setup was interrupted, like during power loss, sudden shutdowns, or with corrupted installation files.When Opening Office Apps: This might mean the Microsoft Office service isn’t running, files are damaged, your Office version is outdated, or there’s a conflict with other apps or network issues.
If your internet connection is stable and no other apps are interfering, try the solutions mentioned below. Follow each step carefully to resolve the issue.
1. Repair Microsoft Office (Fix Error 30068-39)
Since the error is caused by corrupted or missing Office files, repairing the Office installation is recommended. This will restore the necessary files and services that may be preventing the application from opening, ensuring all the required files and services are properly installed and configured.
2. Clean Reinstall Microsoft Office
If you are facing this issue during the installation of Microsoft Office, it could be due to files that already exist on your computer and have become corrupted, preventing Microsoft Office from installing on your computer.
3. Use the Office Scrub Tool
Another tool that you can use is the Office Scrub Tool. This tool performs a deep removal of Microsoft Office by deleting all files and associated registry entries that may be causing conflicts. We recommend using this tool because the standard uninstallation process may leave some files behind, causing issues in the installation process. Therefore, using the Scrub Tool will ensure that Office is completely wiped out from the system, allowing for a fresh installation without errors.
4. Restart the Click-to-Run Service (Fix Error 0x426-0x0)
The Click-to-Run Service is responsible for handling tasks related to installation, updates, or launching. If this service is disabled, Microsoft Office cannot function properly, which could result in various error codes. Therefore, make sure that the Click-to-Run Service is running in the background before launching or installing Microsoft Office. If the error persists, disconnect work/school accounts via Settings > Accounts > Access work or school. Still stuck? Reach out to Microsoft Support directly.
