    In vista.
    Go into control panel and click programs and features.
    When it loads all the programs click on the MS Office program and near the top of the window it says repair.
    Click that.

    If you did not see the repair then I think you uninstalled the MS Office install file rather than the application.
    That's not so bad.
    Click to open a word Doc and see what it says.

    i can open wordpad and its fine, when i go to ms office, a box appears saying office starter 2010 is installed and to go to ms office starter. when i do that, it goes to open, then a box appears saying ms office encountered problem with licensing and needs to close. if this persists, uninstall and reinstall your product

    Try uninstalling it and reinstalling it again see if it might help?
