Windows 10: Office Technical Preview

Whew, I thought I was doing something wrong. I couldn't seem to find the right link either.

Oh well, I'll wait to see if there is other news on Office coming then. *Cool

 

Nearly 24 hours in and outlook still hasn't managed to index my email *cry

 

That's kind of lame you need an active 365 subscription to fiddle with beta software....

 

Did you ask Cortana nicely?

 

Did you ask Cortana nicely? I would but she can not understand a word I say *Sad

 

I have both O365 for Business and O365 Home subscriptions, can't get the preview whatever email I use to sign in to MS Connect?

 

It was there on the 9th, gone on the 10th unfortunately. Presumably it was a mistake.

 

Anyone check out the surveys? It's like getting hired by the federal gov. Questions like swearing not to give out trade secrets.

 

Not really - just like the first 3 rules of fight club.

 

I didn't read the NDA. But then again I'm not planning on sharing anything.

 

It's back *Party





The latest available download is the 'February Technical Preview Refresh' released on 13/03/2015

 

I cannot understand how this is possible. Every time I use Microsoft Click-To-Run installer, I get issues. This happens every time, whatever PC I am using:




Usually the installation goes on though, slowly but it finally finishes, all the time during the process telling me I am not connected. Today I gave up after two hours installer running on the background, rebooted, and now trying again I get this, whatever I do:



I am connected, no issues there. Office Click-To-Run installer is the only application having issues to connect.

 

Really, this sucks!

I gave up Office 2016 installation, it's a no go for me. I had uninstalled Office 2013 as recommended by Microsoft as a troubleshooting tip, so went to Office 365 site thinking I'll reinstall Office 2013 from there. Now this bloody error message blinks on my display and download jumps between 0.0 and 3.5 MBps, a second or two high speed, the error message goes away, then again for a second or two download stops and the error message is shown.




I have had this same circus every time I have used Click-To-Run installer, every time, every PC. Eventually after sometimes tens of tries and reboots I finally get Office installed.

Anyone else having these issues with Office Click-To-Run installer?

 

I've installed/uninstalled Office 2013 Pro and Office 2016 TP multiple times the past day or two with no issues at all, that's a real strange one.

 

It's as if the Click-to-Run installer loses the connection all the time although otherwise my connections is really OK. It has always been like this for me, as long as I have been using the Click-To-Run installers.
