Original KB number: 3188434

Dears Shall you help me I used to use OffScrub VBScript for office to automatic uninstall now i need to uninstall Office 2016 shall any one support me by providing this for me. For a possible solution, see Installation of Office hangs at 90%. Restart your computer and check if Office installed. The Office installation may have completed. So, after you've restarted your computer, go to Can't find Office applications in Windows 10, Windows 8, or Windows 7? To see if Office actually did install.

Symptoms

You start Microsoft Outlook 2016, and it hangs at the Processing stage on the startup screen. Outlook never fully starts.

Resolution

This issue was fixed in the following updates:

  • Office build 16.0.7369.2015 for Office 2016 Click-to-Run editions.
  • March 2017 update for Microsoft Installer (.msi)-based edition of Office 2016.

Workaround Method 1 - Manually configure Outlook 2016 to always run maximized

  1. Exit Outlook 2016.

  2. Determine which icon you use to start Outlook, and access the Properties for that shortcut:

    • Icon on the Desktop

      • Right-click the Outlook icon on the Desktop, and then select Properties.

    • Icon pinned to the taskbar

      1. Right-click the Outlook icon on the taskbar, right-click Outlook 2016, and then select Properties.

    • Icon pinned to the Start menu

      1. Right-click the Outlook tile pinned to the Start menu, point to More, and then select Open file location.

      2. Right-click Outlook 2016 in the File Explorer window that opens, and then select Properties.

  3. In the Outlook 2016 Properties dialog box, select Maximized for Run.

  4. Select OK.

Workaround Method 2 - Use Group Policy to configure Outlook 2016 to always run maximized

  1. Start the Group Policy Management Console.

    Note

    Because you may be applying the policy setting to an organizational unit and not to the whole domain, the steps may also vary in this aspect of applying a policy setting. Therefore, check your Windows documentation for more information.

  2. In the Group Policy Management Console, under User Configuration, expand Preferences, expand Windows Settings, and then select Shortcuts.

  3. Create a new shortcut with the following properties:

    Name: Outlook 2016
    Location: All Users Desktop
    Target path: <path of Outlook.exe>
    Arguments: /recycle
    Start in: <path of Outlook.exe>
    Run: Maximized
    Icon file path: <path of Outlook.exe>

    Note

    The path of Outlook.exe may vary, depending on the Office installation type and bitness of Windows and Office, as follows.

    Office installation typeBitness of Windows and OfficeDefault path of Office
    Click-to-RunSameC:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficerootOffice16|
    Click-to-RunDifferentC:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficerootOffice16|
    MSISameC:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice16|

    Same Bitness: Office 32-bit running on Windows 32-bit or Office 64-bit running on Windows 64-bit
    Different Bitness: Office 32-bit running on Windows 64-bit

  4. Copy the shortcut that you created, and then paste it to duplicate it.

  5. Double-click the shortcut that you pasted, and then change the Location to All Users Start Menu. Select OK.

  6. Copy the shortcut that you created, and then paste it to duplicate it.

  7. Double-click the shortcut that you pasted, and then change the Location to All Users Programs. Select OK.

If a user has an Outlook 2016 shortcut pinned to their taskbar, this will not replace it. The user can unpin the shortcut from their taskbar and then re-pin it from one of the other locations after the policy is in effect.

Hello,


Recently, I've tried running two different installations. One was a Microsoft Office update and the other was installing some design software. Both had the same problem - the Installer freezes once it gets to the 'Running package scripts' part of the installation, with the install time remaining sticking at 'Less than a minute.' When this first happened with the Microsoft Office, I ended the program. Then when I was shutting down, it wouldn't let me shut down the computer until it ended, so I let it sit for a few hours and it finally worked. Is there any way to fix this issue?
