1] Repair Office installation

2] Uninstall and reinstall Office

This solution entails that you uninstall and reinstall the Office suite.

3] Use a newer version of the Office Deployment Tool (applies to only error code 30029-1011)

This solution is only for Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise installations.

You may see this error if you’re using an outdated version of the Office Deployment Tool to download and install Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise. The download works OK, but when you run the /configure the command to install Office programs, you receive the error message.

To fix this error, download a newer version of the Office Deployment Tool.

4] Check internet connection mode

This is a simple solution that requires you to make sure you have a stable internet connection; that your internet connection isn’t intermittent. Also, if you’re experiencing the error while connected via WiFI, you can switch to ethernet and vice-versa and see if there’s any improvement.

5] Run SFC scan

You can run an SFC scan and see if the error will be resolved.

6] Download and install Office in the desired language (applies to only error code 30029-1011)

Do the following:

• Uninstall Office.
• Download the Windows ISO Downloader Tool from heidoc.net.
• Double-click the downloaded installer to run the tool.
• On the Windows ISO Downloader tool UI, choose the Office tab at the right pane.
• Select the Office version that you want to download.
• Then at the left choose the Edition of Office and the desired language below.
• Click Download.
• When the download is completed, double-click on the downloaded image file (ProPlusRetail.img), to mount it in File Explorer.
• Explore the contents of the mounted image (drive) and open the Office folder.
• Depending on your system architecture, double-click the setup32.exe to install the 32-bit Office version, or the setup64.exe to install the 64-bit Office version. It’s recommended, if you have a 64bit version of Windows, to install the 64bit version of Office.

7] Check disk space

As it may be indicated, like the error code 30088-4, you’ll need to make sure you have enough free drive space on your Windows 10 device and then retry the task you were initially performing when you encountered the error code.

You may also, use third-party software to check what’s hogging your drive space and reclaim the space if necessary.

8] Download the correct Language Pack (applies to only error code 30029-1011)

If you can’t install the language pack in Office, ensure that you try to install the correct Language Pack file, according to the installed Office version and architecture (32 or 64bit).

• Click the About Word button at the right pane.
• Navigate to the Office Language Pack download page, and choose the desired language.
• Depending on your system architecture, click Download 32-bit or Download 64-bit.
• Run the downloaded .exe file to install the language pack.

9] Temporarily disable any third-party security software

This largely depends on the security software you have installed. Refer to the instruction manual.

To disable your antivirus software, locate its icon in the notification area or system tray on the taskbar (usually in the lower right corner of the desktop). Right-click the icon and choose the option to disable or exit the program.

After you disable the security software, you can repeat the task you were performing earlier prior to the error. If the task completes successfully, you can enable your antivirus program.

10] Clear Temp folder

To clear the Temp folder on Windows 10, do the following:

• Press Windows key + R to invoke the Run dialog.
• In the Run dialog box, type or copy and paste in the environment variable below and hit Enter.

%windir%temp

• At the location, press Ctrl + A to select all the files and folders.
• Press Delete on your keyboard.

See if the issue at hand is resolved. If not, try the next solution.

11] Disable Proxy

You can remove any proxy server settings you have configured on your Windows 10 computer and see if that resolves the issue.

12] Use Microsoft Office offline installer

The Office offline installer may help in bypassing potential proxy, bypass firewall, and anti-virus or internet connection issues that might show error codes 30029-4, 30029-1011, 30094-1011, 30183-39, 30088-4 while installing Microsoft Office on your Windows 10 device.
