Everytime i start VARA, or connect to VARA, the Windows Installer program comes up wanting to install office 2013 (the version I have on my laptop).

Any ideas how to get rid of this?

Thanks

Office 2013, huh? No problem with that.
VARA has been written in a number of programming languages, including Visual Basic, VB is great at accessing Windows resouces like files and devices, while other, more low-level languages are faster and more powerful in calulation and signal processing.
I know that microsoft's Dot.NET framework grew out of Visual Basic, which relied on .DLLs to provide specialized functions.

I'd suspect that you have an older machine, and current VARA is trying to use an older Office 2013 DLL which wasn't required when you installed it.

Perhaps try installing the current dot net framework from Reboot just in case.

Hope this helps, 73,

My guess on this is there is some part of Office that got overwritten or clobbered as part of VARA installation. If you have the media to reinstall Office, I would uninstall it and then reinstall it. I would also use Revo Uninstaller to do a thorough uninstallation.

Another possibility is there is some plug-in or add-on for Office that VARA touched. Essentially, use the same complete uninstall and then put it back.

Did this problem just recently begin?

You might try to uninstall Office 2013 and then reinstall to see if that remedies the problem. If that doesn't work, try uninstalling VARA and the reinstalling.
