Office Updates October 1, 2024

[German]I have to catch up on something from last week – on October 1, 2024 (first Tuesday of the month), Microsoft released non-security updates for Microsoft Office 2016. I'll summarize some information about these updates here in the blog.

Regular Office update

On the first Tuesday of the month, Microsoft releases non-security updates for versions of Microsoft Office that are still supported. The updates apply to the installable MSI version of Office and are delivered via Windows Update. Click-to-run packages receive the updates via other channels. For this reason, Office 2019 no longer appears in the list below, where only click-to-run installers are available. Microsoft lists the MSI updates on this page.

The packages are distributed automatically via Windows Update, but can also be downloaded and installed manually via the linked KB articles.

KB5002638: Update for Microsoft Project 2016. This update fixes a problem that prevents macros saved in company projects or the global company template from being executed.

The update(s) are provided automatically via Windows Update, but can also be downloaded from the Microsoft Download Center and installed manually. The download addresses can be found in the linked KB article. Further details and instructions for downloading and installing the updates can also be found there.

Incidentally, Office 2016 dropped out of mainstream support on October 13, 2020, but will continue to receive security updates until October 14, 2025. There are no more updates for Office 2013.
