When installing office you can get error code 1610 windows Bootstrapper has stopped working

 

There are many reasons for the installation error here is some suggestions to overcome the error, the log for the installation is in :

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local

look for log files like SetupExe(xxxxxxxxxxx).log  inside there some clues for the failure.

1. there is rouge installation error in the registry :

regedit -> HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products

Look for any weird key name and fix the name to normal (for me it was – in the beginning, i have seen also @@! in the name )

2. Delete AppCompatFlags from registry (Backup this key and delete it) :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags

3. clean the temp directory :

run -> %temp%  delete what ever possiable, clean in the same way c:\windows\temp

4. re-create any missing directories according to the logs, if mentioned .

 


Good Luck
