OFF97: Windows Registry Entries Remain After Remove All

MORE INFORMATION

WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall Windows 95. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

For information about how to edit the registry, view the Changing Keys And Values online Help topic in Registry Editor (Regedit.exe). Note that you should make a backup copy of the registry files (System.dat and User.dat) before you edit the registry.

Other software programs may use the same registry keys that Microsoft Office 97 creates. Deleting these registry keys may cause other programs that use the keys to fail to function properly. When this occurs, reinstall the programs.

When you install Microsoft Windows 95, perform a Custom installation of Microsoft Office 97 and install all the Office components, and then remove Microsoft Office 97, the following registry entries remain in the registry.
