Microsoft Office 2010 silent deploy doesn't install the Proofing tools.
I have created a deployment for Microsoft office 2010, the package deploys and complete's successfully but for some reason the proofing tools are not getting installed. So, when the user goes into Word >> Options >> Languages it shows english proofing tools "not Installed." I checked my other test deploy computers and all have the same results. To make sure there was not a problem with my install I uninstalled Office 2010 from one of the computers and manually deployed Office from my software repository, it installed successfully with the proofing tools. I must be missing something with my customization file, or the language pack is not getting downloaded and installed during the PDQ deploy process.
I am hoping someone has already encountered this problem and has a simple solution.
Thank you
Richie.

Hi Richie, are you using the OCT for the deployment?
Yes, I created a custom MSP file using OCT.
Will you send the MSP file to support@adminarsenal.com. I'll review it and see if anything is standing out. Is this for 32 or 64 bit systems?
32 bit systems,
I may have found the problem. Under Office Shared Featured in the MSP file, spelling and Grammar checker was disabled from Installing. I will enable it and try again. Let me know if you see anything else I may have missed.
A quick view of your MSP looks good. I would enable (as you mentioned above) the entire English proofing tools subsection. It shouldn't take up a lot of disk space. Please post if you were able to get it working.
That did the trick, go figure you need to tell it to install. Thank you.
