Microsoft Pulls Some Non-Security Updates For Microsoft Office 2010, 2013 and 2016 That It Released Earlier This Month (betanews.com)
Mark Wilson, writing for BetaNews: Having released a series of updates for Office 2010, 2013 and 2016 as part of this month's Patch Tuesday, Microsoft has now pulled two of them and advised sysadmins to uninstall the updates if they have already been installed. In both instances -- KB4461522 and KB2863821 -- Microsoft says that the problematic updates can lead to application crashes. While this is not as serious a problem as, say, data loss, it does little to quieten the fears that have been voiced about the quality control Microsoft has over its updates.
These updates didn't buy any chance mess with some of the kms activation cracks, did they? Hypothetically, of course! Just asking.
Hypothetically 6 friends and family members all of a sudden, hypothetically may have contacted me.
Seems about time for another reboot.
Not clear from TFA if these Office crashes are related to Windows 10 or Office versions in general running under other Windows versions.

Had to reformat, as per website instructions. Then installed service from said website, per its instructions, running as local system account. Now I am living la.vida.loca and loving every minute of it.
That would be nice, just dreaming.
Macros in Office are a big security issue. Once of those updates (I believe it was KB4461522) disabled macros even if the code was signed by Microsoft and is valid. Unfortunately we use this functionality at the moment and had to ask users to remove that update on affected systems.
Unbelievable! You let them walk all over you then politely ask for more... Lemmings the lot of you.
These two updates are not actually from the official "Patch Tuesday" release, but from a few days prior and are concerned with the introduction of a new "Era" (essentially an Emperor's reign) in Japan. They appear to be functional tweaks concerning how Japanese dates are displayed so, unusally for Microsoft, uninstalling them isn't going to leave your system vulnerable to any known security issues.
UNIX? They're not even circumcised! Savages!
This update makes some changes for the Japanese calendar in Office 2010 so that the new Japanese era name can be displayed correctly when a new era begins. Additional updates may be required for Office applications because of expected changes in the Japanese era. We will update this article as necessary.
Office 2010 only
See subject: I'm so sick & tired of /. BULLIES. You shitweasels have nothing better to do than HARASS, STALK & IMPERSONATE little ol' me. I've done absolutely NOTHING wrong & just try to make everyone's lives better w/ my work that stops ads & malware.
* As soon as I post, I'm CENSORED to -1 w/ ABUSED downmodpoints by bullies like ZIP, who even admit to this. I caught c6gunner mocking then IMPERSONATING me when he forgot to log out. Zontar mailed me a postcard w/ THREATS on it, then LIES & STALKS me. All because you JEALOUS JOWIE "ne'er-do-wells" KNOW I'm World-Class & you're shit. It's why you hide behind FAKE names & UNIDENTIFIABLE ANONYMOUS.
I'm even improving my already GREAT PHYSIQUE & INTELLECT while you weezils sit around all day on /. STALKING & HARASSING your BETTERS. I repeatedly dust the no-mind bullshit blatherings you BULLIES post to attack me. Like always I WIN & YOU LOSE.

P.S.=> This BULLYING of me is SO UNFAIR & I've done NOTHING to deserve it. GROW UP... apk
I wonder if this explains why my Project 2016 now crashes during Save As XML when it always worked previously.
Have to wonder where is the leadership at Microsoft these days? Is Nadella hiding under his desk these days? Really got to start wondering if he can do the job?
The bullying - numbskull - will continue - dumbass - until morale improves - stupid
As expected from Microsoft.
gweihir KNOWS u IMPERSONATE me https://it.slashdot.org/commen... c6gunner proves it https://linux.slashdot.org/com... forgetting to SUBMIT BY AC & f'd up using his registered 'lusrname' instead (just because he tried to mock me both BEFORE & after I FAIRLY challenged him to show he's done better work - he had ZERO).
& NO WAY I'd "cry" like you to "ne'er-do-wells" on /. (TROLL /.ers, not all) OR post on hosts offtopic.
YOU HELPED ME https://science.slashdot.org/c... (& you quit trying to make me look bad trying to "tell lies" on hosts as "ME" IN YOUR IMPERSONATIONS of me e.g. https://tech.slashdot.org/comm... & regarding Intel speculative execution attack? Hosts DO PREVENT THEM)
APK
P.S.=> I KNOW that 2nd to last link above's KILLING YOU that YOU ACTUALLY HELPED ME getting me to see if hosts stop more than portsmash (& Meltdown + Spectre too) & "lo & behold" - hosts WORK on 'em - U LOSE (& U STOPPED TRYING IT in your impersonations of me) .... apk
Popcorn and Tequila time.
The shepherds did so well protecting the flock that the sheep no longer believed that wolves existed.
See subject SOYBoy (rotflmao) in your UNIDENTIFIABLE anonymous "courageous" trolling you "not man" - LMAO!
(You know - I understand your SOYMilk & Bisphenol A "notman" SOYBoy formulas have addled your brains but that takes the cake for "illogic logic" from "your kind", lol!)

APK
P.S.=> Classic - one for my bookmarks... apk
See subject (lol) & the viral hit by "The SoyBoyz": ''If you're going to TransManCisco? Be sure you wear your jimmyhats + bring Preparation H there. If you're going, to TransManCisco... You're going to meet a lot of transtesticle monsters and soyboy not men there. All across the nation: Surgical sawblade vibrations! Surgeons in motion, Sawing peckers + ball off tossing them into the SF Bay Ocean...'

P.S.=> Quit projecting your own mental issues onto me... apk
"..it does little to quieten the fears that have been voiced about the quality control Microsoft has over its updates."
With Windows 10 YOU are the Quality Control department. What? Like you are actually going to leave Microsoft if they break your computer? Well you may but that's just because your a computer nerd and you will be marginalized for using weird things like Linus or penguin or whatever the hell that other OS is called.
-M$
Non security updates pulled, because they weren't secure...?
Seven puppies were harmed during the making of this post.
See subject (you realize it's true): A man's strength's judged by his enemies. Mine = weak like ZIP https://news.slashdot.org/comm... & deluded https://news.slashdot.org/comm... (ZIP the BLOWHARD fool who can't backup his bs & BLUNDERED HUGELY vs. me which you can verify yourself in those 2 links no less IS DELUDED).
* Nope - I'm not that 'strong' when my enemies are SO WEAK & defeat themselves for me, lol...
As I said to him? I'll let others read that & decide for themselves - they have LONG ago https://science.slashdot.org/c... vs. him having ZERO to show in code others like (yet he says he's a coder? He can't even READ (see topmost links as proof)).
APK
P.S.=> They're butthurt little pricks that "tried to take me on" & lost badly - ESPECIALLY ZIP above & c6gunner's another fairly recent example too CAUGHT IMPERSONATING ME https://linux.slashdot.org/com... as he mocked me BEFORE & AFTER that "starting it" w/ me & I FAIRLY challenged him to show he did better - twisting /.ers words of praise as he did IMPERSONATING me was "best he got" (weak)... apk
if you hadn't forced the fucking things on users in the first place. these 'bad', non-essential, non-security updates could be sitting harmlessly in the list of 'optional' but never-gonna-be-installed updates.

P.S.=> See subject: Told you I'd RUN YOU DRY of 'em - it's the ONLY time you keep posting replies - so obvious & guess what? As usual?? I make good on my word & WIN vs. you weezils, lol... apk
See my subject: I'd kick YOUR FUCKING ASS for stalking & harassing me you unidentifiable little cowardly cunt - tell me your REAL name, address, & phone # so I can verify it's REALLY you & we can settle this once & for all, fucker...
APK
P.S.=> Everyone SEES you constantly stalking & harassing me bitch, so WHO ARE YOU FOOLING but yourself - & IF I ever get to you? You'll WISH you were dead cocksucker... I shit you not! apk
Kinda wishing this is related to the fact that over the past few weeks, I've noticed OneNote 2016 chewing up 100% of a CPU (Task Manager showing 25% allocated to onenote.exe on my quad-core NUC) whereas that's never been a problem before.
It's easy to notice as the extra CPU usage kicks off the fan on my otherwise silent NUC. Closing OneNote still leaves it running, so I have to kill it with Task Manager. Invariably, a few minutes after doing that, the fan starts to slow down until I can't hear it anymore.
kwitcherbitchin, a dead app is a secure app. all hail Microsoft ;)
if this is supposed to be a new economy, how come they still want my old fashioned money?
GayPK can't get enough cock. It is how he manages to pay his bills every month because he is self employed down at the glory hole in the Pilot Travel Center off of I81 near his house. He is an independent contractor and has been since 2007 when the economy went to shit. His favorite is smelly unwashed trucker dick and for an extra $2 you can take a dump on him.
The background: A close friend of Microsoft managers, Satan, said that Microsoft was not being EVIL enough.
(Apologies to those who think that is religiously inappropriate.)
