Uninstall
1. After installing the Office 2010 Primary Interop Assemblies as a part of the
setup of a managed code solution, you should not uninstall the
redistributable. Doing so may remove the PIAs even if another managed
code solution which installed the Office 2010 Primary Interop Assemblies is
installed. Multiple installations of the Office 2010 Primary Interop Assemblies
are not possible, therefore, removing the redistributable will not take into
account other managed code solutions that are using the included PIAs.
Removal of the Office 2010 Primary Interop Assemblies should be an end user
action from Control Panel/Add Remove Programs.
2. Uninstalling the Office 2010 Primary Interop Assemblies after uninstalling
the .NET framework will leave the PIAs on the hard disk in the Global
Assembly Cache (GAC).
