  • You cannot run Office with standalone Office applications, such as Project, Visio, or Access. See "We need to remove some older apps" error.

  • Install earlier versions of Office first. For example, install Office before installing Office (or Office).

  • Make sure all versions of Office are either-bit or-bit. You can’t have a mix of both.
