The 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' provider is not registered on the local machine

This error bugged me for a whole day, I google a lotz and read many articles, but no use i was not able to fix this issue. I am using Windows 7 64bit O/S with 32bit Ms Office, i uninstalled Office completely and downloaded AccessDatabaseEngine_X64 and installed and run my application it worked smoothly.
