I taught it was a good idea at the time.

Usually I use Revo Uninstaller to delete all the file properly.

Thank you for your help.
I have followed all the instruction of this page: https://boinc.mundayweb.com/wiki/index.php?title=Windows_Installer_Error_1706:_Setup_cannot_find_the_required_files except for the 7e step. The installation of boinc 5.10.45 directly on the c: disk without using the CMD command works very well. The 7.16 version install afterwards easily.
I have used the step 6 to uninstall Boinc with no luck.

Thank you again for directing me to that page.
Finally resolved
