When installing MS Office, the setup installation wizard will prompt you to ‘upgrade’ to uninstall and replace or overwrite Microsoft Office 2007, or any previous versions of Microsoft Office suite or applications installed on your PC.
In order to install Microsoft Office 2010 along with Microsoft Office 2007 side by side, you need to install MS Office in a different directory or folder, so that the existing Microsoft Office 2007 program files don’t get overwritten. Use the following instructions to install Office 2010 with Microsoft Office 2007 so that both the productivity suites can be run simultaneously without generating any conflict error.
STEP 1: Run MS Office 2010 installation wizard. Select Customize when asked to choose the preferred type of 2010 installation of either “Upgrade” or “Customize”.
STEP 2 : Click Browse and locate different installation directory path for Microsoft Office 2010 which is not the same with existing Microsoft Office installation path. For example, C:Program Files Office 2010.
STEP 3 : The setup will install Microsoft Office 2010 files and will not affect Microsoft Office 2007 and any other previous versions of Microsoft Office suites.
Tip: Once the installation is completed, the default documents, spreadsheets, presentations and other files will be changed in Microsoft Office 2010 file format, but it can be changed manually via Control Panel. A simpler method is to reinstall Microsoft Office 2007, and allow it to repair Microsoft Office 2007 installation.
