Hello,

First off what is the client that you used for downloading this thing? Utorrent and Vuze seem to be causing issues as of late. Which is even more problematic, because they are among the most-frequently used clients. 

At the beginning you can try doing a "Force re-check" in your torrent client, regardless of which client you use. This will check the integrity of your download in [percentage], and when it's done 100%, please re-extract the contents of the .rar download again, into a fresh folder, and try re-installing.

If that fails, try re-downloading with a different torrent client. qBittorrent, Tixati, Transmission, etc. Rinse and repeat the process of extracting with WinRAR, and try re-installing.

I only installed this thing once, and many years ago, together with my Office 2010 at the time. I'm not sure if it plays a role, but are you using a different Office version than 2010? If you do have 2010, do you have any other Office version installed "parallel" to it, by any chance? For the moment I'm afraid I can't say much else, and quite frankly I don't even fully know what this download does. I think it has something to do with spellchecking, grammar, stuff like that.

Feel free to keep us posted if you like! clown

Hello thanks for your reply.  Yes I am using utorrent and I do have another version of office, 2013 which I downloaded from here.  Probably it needs to be installed along side office 2010.
