Cannot update Office 2010 on Windows XP

Cannot update MS Office 2010 on Windows XP. Please Fix it.

Thanx

Hello karn,

Welcome to the forums. Could you please be more specific about the problem or error. For example, an extract from C:\Windows\wsusofflineupdate.log would help us (please use [/code] tag).

And: Windows XP is not supported anymore by WSUS Offline Update. So maybe you're stumbling over this, when the Updater starts? I don't know if this is queried by the updater when you use an Office-only ISO.

Greetings
Gerby

The installer flat-out refuses to do anything under XP with "unsupported OS".

Youncan try the following: edit DoUpdate.cmd and replace

Code: Select all

if "%OS_NAME%"=="wxp" goto UnsupOS

(line 122) with

Code: Select all

rem if "%OS_NAME%"=="wxp" goto UnsupOS

. I did not test this modification, it just bypasses the check, it may cause wsusou to crash.
