Some times we need to uninstall Microsoft Office 2007 from our computer and reinstall it. Many people says it is not uninstalling properly while doing it from normal Add/Remove Programs method. Here I present a different method to uninstall Office 2007 from your computer. We have done it on one of my friend's XP computer and the result was success. So the steps are:

1. Launch Windows Task Manager

To launch Windows Task Manager press [Ctrl] + [Alt] + [del] buttons together.


2. Kill wgatray.exe

You should kill the process wgatray.exe from the Task Manager

3. Reboot Windows XP in safe mode

To get in to safe mode press [F8] while the system starts booting and select the safe mode option.

4. Delete WgaTray.exe

To delete this exe file go to c:\Windows\System32

5. Delete WgaTray.exe

You can find this file in c:\Windows\System32\dllcache


6. Edit Registry values

To edit registry we need to open registry editor by typing regedit on Run and press enter.

Go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\
Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify "

Now delete the folder ‘WgaLogon’ and all its contents

7. Reboot your computer and comes back to normal mode.
