September 2020 Office non-Security Updates are now available
Posted on September 1st, 2020 at 12:38 Comment on the AskWoody LoungeThe September 2020 Office non-Security updates have been released Tuesday, September 1, 2020. They will not be included in the DEFCON approval for the August 2020 patches. Unless you have a specific need to install them, you should wait until Susan Bradley (Patch Lady) approves them and any problems have been reported.
Remember, Susan’s patching sequence and recommendations are based on a business environment that has IT support and may have time constraints on the updating process. Consumer patching should be more cautious due to limited technical and mechanical resources. The latter is the reason for the AskWoody DEFCON system.

Outlook 2019 – recent update makes it impossible for an admin to uncheck “Always ask before opening this type of file”
Posted on August 26th, 2020 at 11:46 Comment on the AskWoody LoungeThis in from BW:
Until the June Outlook 2019 updates, I’ve always been able to uncheck “Always ask before opening this type of file” for various extensions by starting Outlook as administrator. It’s always been necessary after MS Office updates but at least it worked. Now it doesn’t. Remains greyed out even when running as admin. Really annoying since I know what I’m doing and don’t need the extra warning. Plus I open attachments all the time. It’s especially annoying when it’s an attachment in an email that I’ve saved and need to go back to often. Note that it also doesn’t work if you’ve, say, saved an Excel spreadsheet or Word document directly in an outlook folder, not as an attachment.
I know there used to be registry settings for this. I no longer have those and could look them up online but given this latest change not sure even that would work.
Anybody out there seeing the same problem? Got a solution?

Bad Office Click-to-Run (and installed MSI version?) update blamed for Outlook freeze
Posted on July 15th, 2020 at 12:24 Comment on the AskWoody LoungeLots of reports this morning about Outlook freezing on start.
From an anonymous poster on AskWoody:
Today when I went to check my email, Outlook would not open; it would load the “Starting Outlook…” splash screen, which would close without opening the Outlook window itself, and the taskbar icon went away. Looking in Reliability History, it states that Outlook has crashed.
I tried opening in safe mode (it does the exact same process as described above) and restarting the computer to no avail. I even tried the full repair (not the quick one), redownloading and reactivating MS Office 2019, but no go.
Quintalis on Reddit:
Outlook immediately crashing on open after patching last night
Even in safe mode, appcrash. Full online repair no good, rolling back updates, anyone seeing this?
edit: appcrash, exception code 0xc0000005, re-install no good, rollback no good. We also regedited for sigred mitigation last night, I’m tempted to temporarily undo that and test…
edit2: temporarily unpatched sigred, tested, not the culprit!
edit3: Had some copies of Office 2019 C2R lying around, installed version 1808 (Build 10363.20015 Click-to-run) and it’s working. Yay?
From tenebrousrogue:
I’ve got a fix, after this hit several of our clients. Performing a rollback fixed it, must be a bad office update. open cmd, run:
cd “\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\ClickToRun”
then:
officec2rclient.exe /update user updatetoversion=16.0.6366.2062
EDIT: u/peEtr had success as well, with a more recent version (June24th). Change the second command to:
officec2rclient.exe /update user updatetoversion=16.0.12827.20470
UPDATE: From @rpodric
I assumed the update they were talking about was server side, since I’ve been on the same C2R (Beta) build for a week, but who knows. Nothing should have changed build-wise here. My third attempt running it this morning was successful somehow.
In the past few minutes, Microsoft has acknowledged the bug, but you’re on your own. “As a workaround, users can utilize Outlook on the web or their mobile clients.” Golly. My PC doesn’t work for email, so I need to whip out my iPad?
ANOTHER UPDATE: Microsoft says “We’re rolling out a fix for this issue, and we expect the mitigation to reach all customers over the next few hours.” No details about version numbers – or even the method being used to roll out the fix.
Says Ralph Carothers: “So, by reach them do you mean its going to back door patch them? Because this happened middle of the day to most of the users I’ve had impacted, and I certainly didn’t push out a patch.”

Report: Windows 2004 update is not updating Office 2016 Pro Plus (MSI) installation
Posted on June 22nd, 2020 at 17:21 Comment on the AskWoody LoungeThis one has me scratching my head.
@ScotchNSoda reports:
I recently had to rebuild my Windows 10 machine due to a failed SSD. I installed Windows 10 version 2004 as well as Office 2016 Pro Plus (installed MSI version). When checking for updates via Windows Update, only Windows updates are downloaded and installed; no Office updates are downloaded or installed.
I already confirmed the Windows Update setting ‘Receive updates for other Microsoft products when you update Windows’ is enabled. I know there are Office 2016 updates that should be installed. Office 2016 is updating correctly on my other Windows 10 machine running version 1909.
Can anybody confirm?

Debilitating “Outlook needs to close” bug linked to a likely bad Windows cumulative update
Posted on June 22nd, 2020 at 07:55 Comment on the AskWoody LoungeDon’t you just love it when Microsoft fails to test its latest version of Outlook with its latest version of Windows?
Of course, Outlook can’t fix your PST file – because there’s nothing wrong with it.
We have a few more clues about the bug… and it’s likely that Windows is at fault.
Details in Computerworld Woody on Windows.
Sneak peek: I believe that the bug occurs on systems that:
- Use PST, not OST, files, AND
- Run Microsoft 365 version 2005 Current Channel release 12827.20268 (from June 2) or Current Channel release 12827.20336 (from June 9), AND
- Have installed the June 2020 Win10 cumulative update (KB 4557957 for version 2004, KB 4560960 for versions 1903 or 1909, or KB 4561608 for version 1809).
