Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Over One Year

This update is just crap as it destroyed my complete office installation. The update went 'successfully' through all the steps and finished normal. At least that was the information the MS Installer gave me. But after a quick check in Word I noticed that more or less all the menu entrys where gone. Just white empty space left. The menu itself is working but if you can't see what entry it is you're clicking on it's useless. Same in Excel and all the other applications from MS.

Ok, thats bad but it got worse. If you try to save a document Word crashes (I've send multiple reports to MS and hope they will read the reports!). And after the first crash nothing worked anymore. The applications (Word, Excel..) starts normal but in the moment you try to click on anything (menu, toolbar..) the just crash.

had to completely remove all office parts. And yes, the MS uninstaller WONT do that. You have to go through all the folders manual or use a tool like CleanAPP...
