Office Click-To-Run Uninstaller

Why would you use the Office Click-To-Run Uninstaller Worklet?

The Office Click-To-Run Uninstaller Worklet is a convenient solution for IT administrators who need to disable Click-To-Run versions of Microsoft Office across multiple machines. This might be due to reasons such as software compatibility or policy changes.

Using this Worklet helps to ensure a uniform Office version across your network, eliminating inconsistencies and potential compatibility issues.

Components of the Office Click-To-Run Uninstaller Worklet

The Office Click-To-Run Uninstaller Worklet is built upon several key components to effectively uninstall Office. It probes the system registry to identify any Click-To-Run installations, leverages the Office Deployment Tools (ODT) to execute the uninstallation, and utilizes the Office Scrub script to remove MSI versions of Office.

How does the Office Click-To-Run Uninstaller Worklet work?

The Worklet first verifies if a Click-To-Run version of Office is installed. If detected, it removes the software using the Office Deployment Tool in conjunction with a tailor-made XML configuration file. For user-interactive uninstallations, it copies the necessary files to a temporary location and creates a scheduled task to perform the uninstallation. In contrast, silent uninstallations are executed directly via the Worklet.

What is the expected outcome when you use the Office Click-To-Run Uninstaller Worklet?

Upon running this Worklet, the system will remove any installed Office Click-To-Run suite, leaving the computer ready for a fresh install of Office. The Worklet also provides feedback on the uninstallation's success or failure, allowing IT administrators to monitor and troubleshoot any potential issues.

This precise control over your Office installations helps maintain a streamlined and consistent environment across your network.
