Error 1704: An installation of microsoft office is currently suspended [Solved]
This can happen for any software, not only for MS Office. Reason: While installing the program, here it is Office, the installation was interrupted, either by removing the installation CD, or there was a power-cut, or for any other reason. Technical reason: The installation has 'locked' MSI (Microsoft Installer). Rapid Solution: I downloaded and installed a program named 7zip from here: http://www.7-zip.org/a/7z1701.msi You will get the error message " Error 1704: An installation of microsoft office is currently suspended" again. This time, click on Yes and finish the installation of 7zip. After installation is complete, proceed to the installation of Microsoft Office. Tada!
