I tried to install Office off the files but it will not work. So I 
assume that there must be an installer somewhere within those files and 
folders.

When I had problems with the windows install and used the backup on the 
HDD it took 2.5hrs to delete the files then another 1.5hrs to install 
the system up again and in doing so installed all the extras again which 
were on the backup. No options. Only when finished was I able to delete 
the extras through W7 control panel.
