    Uninstall trial windows 2007 without uninstalling full version
    « on: September 09, 2009, 05:00:41 PM »
    I bought a Trial version of Word 2007 about a year ago.  I later upgraded over the phone to the full version.  For the sake of saving space, I tried to delete the trial version only but my full version was taken away with it.  I have no problem with reloading bother versions.  The problem is that I want to take out only the trial.  Is that possible or do they have to leave together?

    Unless disk space is really limited for you, just leave them both in.

      Try seeing if the upgrade will install without the original, it may only ask you for the disk to prove ownership.

      Otherwise try other options for freeing up HDD space, or purchase a new HDD, they aren't that expensive anymore.

      And if they get any cheaper that will come in every third box of Frosted Flakes breakfast cereal.  :o

      On www.eBay.com search hard hard drives under $25 including USA shipping.

      maybe you can try getting the trial back onto your computer and just convert it to full version with the full version key, seeing that you already have a full version key available.
