Keep in mind though that it’s not advisable to keep your softwares outdated. The Click-to-Run service won’t start from now on. Note: The above steps are for Windows 7 but that should work with Windows 8, 10 also. In General tab find Startup Type, Pull down menu, select Disable. Click Okay and restart your computer.

Since, Click-to-Run provides update to the Office suite and is an important component of Microsoft Office it’s NOT advisable to uninstall it anyway. Now, for the second part of your question, you cannot uninstall Click-to-Run because technically it’s an installer and if you try to uninstall it you’ll get some error and probably the Office installation will get corrupted. If you try to use a feature that is not yet downloaded and installed, Click-to-Run immediately downloads and installs that feature. While you are using the product, the rest of the product is being downloaded in the background. But with the streaming capabilities in Click-to-Run, you can open and start to use the product before the whole product is installed. If you install Office by using MSI, you have to wait until the whole Office product is installed before you can open and start to use the product.
