    Clean Office 2016 update files


    I recently updated Microsoft Office 2016 with the latest patches via Windows update. There were tons of updates. Like with Windows 10, I would like to clean the cache where the outdated files are stored, and possibly the registry. There are 4 GB of data somewhere on my system, my question is: where are the folders where Office 2016 update cache are stored?

    :)

  2. Office 365 or Office 2016

    Under info for the new office listing on My Visual Studio it states.

    Office Professional Plus 2016 (x86 and x64) - (Multiple Languages)
    To obtain the product, follow these steps:

    Step 1: Get your product key by clicking the ‘Get key’ button on the right.

    Step 2: Go to the Office website by clicking the ‘Get it now’ button.

    Step 3: Enter your 25-character product key and continue as directed on the site.

    Released: 9/23/2015

    And for the discontinued it states.

    Office Professional Plus 2016 (Discontinued)
    Info
    Keys
    Office Professional Plus 2016 (x86 and x64) - DVD (English)
    No additional details are available for this file.

    Released: 9/22/2015
    SHA1: 213A8A0F8849516704101CB6C49F6A027B0D6D5F
    File name: en_office_professional_plus_2016_x86_x64_dvd_6962141.iso

    I'm thinking option one is going to be my only option. I'm fine with that as long as I can get Outlook to work with my ISP's pop3 e-mail. Last time I tried that with the new 2016 install I could not get it to work, no way no how. All the same settings that work with the ISO install?

    EDIT: I should mention, for me as far as I know, neither of these options are a subscription. They use two different keys but they are perpetual one time activation licenses. I only ran the new download briefly though, as I could not get outlook to work. I bailed and went back to what works.

    Office 2016 updates "error 0x8024002d"

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I appreciate your effort on this. I understand that you get an error 0x8024002d while installing for Office 2016 updates, we will look into this for you.



    I suggest you to refer the troubleshooting steps mentioned in the article

    Fix Windows Update errors
    and see if that helps.



    Note: The last two steps talk about in-place upgrade and clean installation. Clean installation will remove all the data and programs from the computer. You may take a backup of the data before performing the steps.



    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.



    Regards,

    Nikhar Khare

    How to get Windows 10 to update Microsoft Office 2016 using Windows Update?

    I have Microsoft Office 2016 installed on my PC. In the past when I was using Office 2013, Office 2013 was automatically updated through "Windows Update" under Settings. However, this is not so for Office 2016. For Office 2016, I have to update it by going to File->Account->Update follow steps in web link below. Check for Updates in Office 2016 for Windows

    How can I get Windows 10 to update Microsoft Office 2016 using Windows Update?
