Rather than bother with these installer directories, just choose the icon
from the program itself, in this case winword.exe. For office XP it's here:

\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\Winword.exe

I have problems with the installer directories every time I do a backup and
restore of paritions to defrag them (I do windiff's in between and never see
any files missing, but the installer files often just go away).
