64Bit Office updates missing

I have been using wsus offline for several years now.
It is a fantastic product, keep up the good work.

It would be really nice if it downloaded the updates for 64bit office products as well as 32bit.

As with some other options, this can only be activated by running an additional script:

Open a terminal window, change to the directory wsusoffline/cmd and run this command from there:

Code: Select all
C:\wsusoffline\cmd>AddOffice2010x64Support.cmd enu


"enu" is for English, "deu" for German, "fra" for French, etc. The script should tell you all available options, if you run it without any option. I think, it creates additional files in the wsusoffline/static/custom directory. You can remove these files, if you don't need them anymore, or run yet another script "RemoveOffice2010x64Support.cmd".

the script will work assuming there's a 64bit office product already installed.
Only Office 2010 and greater come in both 32bit & 64bit versions. Office 2007 and earlier are only 32bit.

The script change is for downloading 64bit Office patches. The downloading system doesn't need to have any Office installed for download to work.
