Microsoft Office 365 Forum

Hi,

I was on the process of installing Office 365 with a subscription I just
purchased. The process went on, until it stopped at 58%, showing a
30088-4 error message.

Checking on the internet, I found it was maybe related to the Internet
Explorer missing installation. So I proceeded to install it on the same
bottle; it installed all .net Sofware yet in the end, I got an error
saying that the Operating System was not compatible with IE 8. Then I
tried to install again Office 365, and got the same error.

The bottle is Win 10 64 bits; using a demo of the lates version of Crossover, on Linux Mint 20.1

Any help please?

PD: Originally I posted a ticket, yet I have not received any answer

Hi there,

As mentioned in other posts, Office will not install in a win10 bottle using CrossOver. The online installers should install well into win7 bottles.

Hello, did you try running a SFC scan?
System file checker is a pre-installed windows utility service which enables the windows users to scan and fix corruptions in windows system files. The SFC scan will identify the corrupted files and repair or restore the particular file from cached copies of system files located in a compressed folder at %WinDir%\System32\dllcache.

Steps to perform SFC scan to fix Error code 30088-4:

1. First of all, make sure that the computer date and time is correct.
2. Open command promt with administratior previlages.
3. Type “SFC /SCANNOW” and click enter.
4. Do not close the Scan window untill it is 100% complete.
5. Once the scan is complete, start installation/update to check whether Error code 30088-4 is fixed.

I hope this this helps you out solve your problem.

Hi there,

I would be highly surprised if SFC worked in CrossOver, and sadly I don't think that will help in this case. Our developers understand the issues with installing Office 365 in a win10 bottle, but we do not have a solution yet.
