    Hello All,

    I just upgraded Office 2007 to Office 2010 Professional Acad. While installing, I chose 'customize' (just to see what' inside) but I anyways chose to 'remove all previous versions'.

    Installation and everything is perfect and all office app's are working great.

    But when I look in the programs and features, I still see the previous version of office (Office 2007 Ult., and the language pack I'd got along with that!!!).

    Is it ok to just let them be or do I have to uninstall them manually?

    Thanks and cheers.

    Thanks.. and yeah, I agree. But during the installation when it offers the option of removing all previous versions, what does it exactly do? Doesn't it remove everything completely?

    By the way, if I remove them some how, can I install Office 2007 again on a new laptop?
