Windows wants to install updates for Office 2002 and Office XP and I have VISTA and Office 2007
I have read many topics and I can't seem to find the same problem I have. I use Windows VISTA Home Premium (32 bit) for awhile and since June 30, 2009, I had bad download and install Windows updates. I installed updates today, but I continue to be invited to run/install updates for Office XP and Office 2002 (currently about 9). I used VISTA and Office 2007 for some time. I believe that I have IE 7 and SP2. I appreciate any help I can get to fix this. Thanks in advance for your help.
Hello SKYisDlimit,
After my communication to you, I continued to the Internet using the search. I was finally able to locate the file you suggested (Msmapi\1033) he successfully Office Pro 2003 Outlook running. Thank you!!
I don't know if you're alone in asking the question following or not, but I'm still able to re - install Microsoft Office Professional 2007. I uninstalled after information I received of Santosh, and it has the re - install Office Pro 2003 (which have been upgraded). Now when I try to reinstall 2007 (bought in February 2007), I keep getting the following message: "Setup is unable to find a version of Microsoft Office on your computer. If Office is installed on a disk or a network share, click the buttun browse to select the appropriate disk or sharing. If you have a version of MB on a CD, insert the CD into your CD-ROM drive, and then click the Browse button to select the appropriate drive. »
I tried several times without success. Of course, I use Office 2003 Pro, so it's on the computer. If you are unable to solve this problem, please either direct to the appropriate area or tell me who I need to contact. Once again, thank you in advance for your help. Needless to say, it's more frustrating!

Cannot install updates for Windows 7 SP1
Hello
I tried for awhile now to switch to Windows 10 without luck ( http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-win_upgrade/windows-7-key-not-recognized/9a66ab9a-819a-4285-9461-64e7528db222?tm=1450545430339&auth=1 ). In the end, I decided to reinstall Windows 7 RTM, install all updates and then upgrade to Windows 10.
Unfortunately, I seem to be impossible to install updates for Windows 7 now. Everything was going fine until Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320 installed. After a few mistakes, WU start looking for updates for hours. I've tried everything as suggested here without a bit of luck. In the end, I decided to leave it to search through the night and finally it does find and download updates about 300.
Installation of these updates takes about 4 hours and Windows restarted and tried to configure the new updates, restarted saying once again he could not configure the updates of Windows and it will undo the changes. And it's been like that for over an hour.
So as soon as now I can not even update Windows 7, not to mention the upgrade of Windows 10. Any ideas? I'm sick of the Windows updates, causing problems.
Installation sometimes loads of updates at a time can cause problems. When you access the list of the 300 updates Windows updates to odd day again, deselect all of them and then choose the oldest (for example) 50 and see if they install on their own.
Sometimes do fall off a long list of updates and try to install more small pieces may help them to install.
Is not sure, but its worth a try as a first shot.
(I know what you mean though issues of update.) It makes you wonder what's going on sometimes :-()
If this does not help, is there required failure account error codes?
