[APP TESTING] MS Office 2003 testing request

Post by ctasan »

Hello! There was a problem with MS Office 2003: when I attempted to uninstall Office 2003, the system crashed and after crash, system crashed again while booting with a page fault error (if I remember correctly). It seemed me like a registry or filesystem corruption.

Can someone install Office 2003 Professional and attempt to install it? And if someone (especially Black_Fox) retests CORE-8610, I'll be glad because I don't have time to test because of my exams and programs.

Thanks!

I moved recently and my testing rig is buried deep inside the unopened boxes, but I'll look at it as soon as I have the time and opportunity.

Just a virtual machine is enough, I've seen that bug in this way.

Big thanks for you, anyway :)

Dugged the rig out :-) I run VirtualBox either way, but just needed the testing data stored on the disk.

Installation of Office2003 in ROS is getting finished, but the process is probably incomplete.

Office Update requires Windows Update(therefore, no Wine nor ReactOS) and will not work. Other functions will most probably work.
-uses Ubuntu+GNOME 3 GNU/Linux
-likes Free (as in freedom) and Open Source Detergents
-favors open source of Windows 10 under GPL2

Thanks! Does Office 2003 uninstalls properly?

Thanks for notifying, but I already know that.

No, uninstallation doesn't work properly. Not sure what is removed, but I can see at least 300 MB left behind on disk.
Maybe it will improve after the winesync of msi module. Once 0.4.0 RC start arriving, I'll try it again.

ReactOS is still in alpha stage, meaning it is not feature-complete and is recommended only for evaluation and testing purposes.

If my post/reply offends or insults you, be sure that you know what sarcasm is...

Yeah, that may be right. I didn't check the "read only" flags, though.

I use ReactOS on real hardware. Will you? My Computers: https://www.reactos.org/wiki/PC_ROS_Rigs Go all the way to the bottom.
