1429805 2016-12-14 06:57:00 I use Office 2007 but find that Windows 10 doesn't seem to want to know about security updates.

Is there a way that Win 10 can recognise those updates and install them. I have tried a "Repair" but without success - is it that Office is no longer acceptable to Win 10?

Going to Office help only directs me to WIN 10 information.

1429806 2016-12-14 07:15:00 Make sure they are turned on. Sometime when installing office the update option is not selected.

support.office.com (support.office.com) Select Windows 10

Otherwise - Single security update for SP3 www.catalog.update.microsoft.com OR the complete list ( not been updated since 2012) www.catalog.update.microsoft.com

Download & install the 2007 Service Packs Manually. Thats a start .

ms's info is a bit vague & confusing

1429808 2016-12-14 21:24:00 a bit more usefull info, you may REQUIRE 2007 SP3 for updates to work

www.zdnet.com
"Office 2007 Service Pack 3
Earlier service pack releases are no longer supported, and this group of products has already passed the end of mainstream support. Extended support ends on October 10, 2017."

1429809 2016-12-15 08:30:00 Why don't you get Office 365 - its great and uptodate and you can get it on a yearly subscription.
Office 2007 is nearly 10 years old!

For me 07 still works and does all I need it to. I use office 16 at work and honestly it doesn't do anything that my 07 at home can't do for me. When its unsupported I will probably move to a free office suite unless I get it free with a new laptop

1429812 2016-12-15 18:29:00 I'm with you Gary. Office 2007 does all that I need and I see no advantage to me having to pay a yearly subscription for bells and whistles that I will never use. Mainly use Outlook, Word and to a lesser degree Excel so that's that! Bryan (147)
