End user customizations are part of the user's profile and have nothing to do with the actual application install so no, they won't lose anything when uninstalling or upgrading the apps (just echoing what others have said and adding a little bit of why detail).
J From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Griffin Craig Sent: Thursday, September 4, 2014 2:52 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [mssms] Office 2010 to Office 2013 Upgrade ConfigMgr 2012 R2 Environment w/ Windows 7 Desktops I'm looking at rolling out Office 2013 towards the end of the year to co-inside with our Exchange 2013 migration (Fun times). I started out by simply configuring the OCT with its default behavior to remove previous office versions. This works for everything except for the Office 2010 Tools and Lync 2010. (Which I knew it wouldn't remove Lync anyway) I was curious as to what others had done when they migrated to Office 2013. Did you run a script to uninstall Office and Lync prior to the upgrade? If so, I assume the end users lost their customizations, signatures, and such right? Or did you find a way to do the upgrade and clean up Lync and the Office 2010 Tools? Any help or advice would be appreciated! Thanks! Craig Griffin Systems Administrator
