Update installing over and over again

Discussion in 'Windows Vista' started by Tom Hall, Jun 14, 2009.

    Tom Hall Guest

    64-bit Vista Home Premium

    Update for Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 Junk Email Filter (KB970012) is
    repeatedly installing here. No sooner do I respond to the prompt to install
    it that a few minutes later it appears again as a new important update.

    Funny thing is, I don't even HAVE Office 2007. I do however have Office
    Professional 2003.

    How do I dispense with this repeated update?

    Interesting side-note to the above.

    I decided to manually download the update and try installing it, but I got
    a message saying "There are no products affected by this package installed
    on this system".

    It's classified as important so I can't hide it.

    Uninstall the update from Programs and Features (be sure to tick the box to
    show updates) and then immediately reboot even if no reboot is required.
    That should clear the immediate problem. Then you should be able to
    download and install it if necessary.

    The update does not appear in the list - which is probably why Windows
    Update keeps trying to push it out to me.

    Tom

    The reason being is that you have downloaded and installed either all or one or more
    of the following on your Office 2003 Pro to be able to view the new format(s) like
    doxc (doc).

    Word 2007 Viewer
    PP 2007 Viewer
    Excel 2007 Viewer

    Unfortunately because of the above 2007 Viewers that you installed the Office Update
    and the Windows Update reads that you also have Office 2007 besides Office 2003.
    This is a known issue that all encounter that has done the same as you .You only
    have the choices to either download it and install it (will do no harm) or hide the
    said Update (s)

    I had those viewers installed on my old XP machine. They have not been
    installed on this one.

    I was not able to hide the update, so I turned off the option to use
    Windows Update in Control Panel. That has at least solved the problem for
    now.

    Neither. I bought a new dual-core computer with 64-bit Vista Home Premium
    pre-installed - custom-built to my specifications. The only reason I went
    to 64-bit was that I wanted 8 gig of ram for gaming.
