          Found solution. Instead of regedit steps, just run this code in cmd (with admin privilegges):



          Reg.exe add "HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftOffice12.0WordOptions" /v "NoRereg" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f
          Reg.exe add "HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftOffice12.0ExcelOptions" /v "NoRereg" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f
          Reg.exe add "HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftOffice12.0PowerPointOptions" /v "NoRereg" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f


          and that's all.

          This issue can occur if the registry settings have been corrupted.



          First off, try to repair your Office installation.





          If that fails to fix the issue, an article showcasing the following two solutions can be found here.




          Solution 1 (Registry Mod):



          Run regedit and navigate to:



          HKEY-CURRENT-USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice12.0WordOptions


          Add a new DWORD entry named NoRereg with a value of 1.



          Repeat for Excel.



          This will work when multiple versions of Office are installed, as well as when only one version is installed.




          Solution 2 (Program Files Mod):



          Navigate to the following folder:



          C:Program FilesCommon Filesmicrosoft sharedOFFICE12Office Setup Controller


          Rename SETUP.EXE to anything else, e.g SETUP_diabled.EXE.



          This will only work for the case where one version of Office is installed.
