uninstall Office 2016 manual method

Question

Hello,

I am on Windows 10, and I want to uninstall Office 2016 to reinstall the French version (I have an English version, which is not suitable for me). I haven't been able to do it with CCleaner, nor through the Control Panel, nor with the Customer Support tool on the Office support page (https://support.office.com/fr-fr/article/d%C3%A9sinstaller-office-d-un-pc-9dd49b83-264a-477a-8fcc-2fdf5dbf61d8). I'm stuck trying the manual method written on the Office support page: when I try to click on delete while I am in C/program files x86/common files/microsoft shared, a "folder in use" window opens. I don't see anything that looks like Office running in the Task Manager; the ones mentioned in the Microsoft help are not there, but maybe there are others to stop?
Can you help me uninstall all this, please?

If it's a lock that's stuck, you can bypass it with Unlocker.
But what's left in this directory? Some dlls?

I have an English version
Official version?
Otherwise, you could take a look at the Virus forum...

To remove a stubborn program, you can use "regedit"
Open regedit and search
the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE, Microsoft, Windows, CurrentVersion, Uninstall.
Identify the keys containing office and delete them.
