Setup cannot create Registry Key
While installing Microsoft Office we receive this error. This is given a number 1401. This error is related to registry key creation when we install Microsoft Office. Office installation wizard could not install the program as it could not write into the registry.
This error is due to the followinng reasons:
- The user might not have Administrative rights.
- The permission for the Everyone group of the registry subkey noted in the error message is not set to Full Control.
- A third-party application like spysweeper on the system can deny the required access to the registry subkey.
- The non-administrative user accounts on the computer do not have permission to modify specific files that are used by the Office Setup program.
- This issue may occur if a Group Policy high-security template was applied to the computer and if the high-security template restricts access to the following file:
- Office 2007C:\Documents and Settings\AllUsers\Application Data\Microsoft\ Office\Data\Opa12.dat
- Office 2003
For Windows Vista or Windows 7:
- Office 2007C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\Office\Data\Opa12.dat
- Office 2003C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\Office\Data\Opa11.dat
When non- admin users cannot modify the file, users cannot start any office 2007, 2003 and Office XP. There are similar error messages that will give error messages 1402 that gives an error message 'Error 1402: Setup cannot open Registry Key ' and 'Error 1406: Setup cannot write the value to the registry key'.

Issues In Activating Microsoft Office
Reduced Functionality Mode
Microsoft Office provides an option to try the software first before purchasing it. This gives an option to use the software for a period of 60 days and then it goes to reduced functionality mode which means we have access to those programs but some of the features will be disabled.
Product Activation
Microsoft Office can be installed as a trial version and can be activated later depending on the necessity and likeliness to use it. For this purpose Microsoft Corporation has introduced the trial version and that can be used for a period of 60 days and later on if we like the product we can continue using it by purchasing the key for the full functional program. Not only Microsoft but each and every branded company requests for an activation of their products to verify that we have purchased a genuine branded product of that particular company.

Office Licence Types
There are two main types of licensing :
Product Key Cards
Traditional Disks
Product Key Cards:
Product Key Cards are similar in many ways to the Office 2007 Medialess License Kits (MLKs).They are designed for use with new PCs preloaded with Office 2010, and include a 25-character Product Key that can be used by the end user to activate one PC preloaded with Office 2010. Product Key Cards do not include a disc; however, a backup download is available for reinstallation on the same PC. The Product Key Card license type is not transferable to another computer.
Traditional Disks:
This license type, often referred to as Full Packaged Product (FPP) in the past, includes a DVD, a 25-character Product Key, and a Quick Start Guide. Similar to the way Product Key Cards work, the 25-character Product Key will activate an Office 2010 preloaded PC. However, unlike the Product Key Card, the DVD may also be used to install Office on a new PC that has not been preloaded with the Office 2010 or on an existing PC. The number of installations and users depends on the specific Office suite purchased.
