Windows 10 Anniversary Update error 0x800705b4

thnx @suzanne bosch

turning off get updates for other Microsoft products in windows update
solved the problem.

the problem started after i reinstalled ms office 2007 and then installed the updates for ms office 2007 from windows update. so it seems there is something in the ms office 2007 updates that caused a conflict for me

im running win10 pro ver1511 with jan2017 windows updates.

 

Windows 10 update of 9/26/2016 has made my Office 2007 Home and Student disappear. I had been using it for a year on W10. What's happening?

Have used office 2007 since acquiring Winows 10. Today's update wiped out my 2007 Office Home and Student. It will not recognize the program.

 

Roman,

The only one that is explicitly an Outlook update is KB4011086 Security Update for Microsoft Office Outlook 2007. Incidentally, I had problems with getting that update to install but did not see your symptoms.

Assuming that none of your other Office applications are in trouble then I suggest

1 Uninstalling KB4011086 - Control panel, Progs & features, View installed updates, {right-click on this update}, Uninstall.

2 Then downloading it again directly from the Microsoft update catalog - http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/...px?q=KB4011086
[you can also download it from the Microsoft download centre if you want. This link is to its KB page & that has the link to both the MUC & the Download centre - you'll need to tweak the link for your language unless it automatically redirects you https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/...ptember12-2017]

Update notes -
Just in case it is useful, I ended up extracting its contents then
1 installing from the cab file beginning all-outlook-x-none
and then also
2 installing from the cab file beginning with my language all-outlook-en-us [I assume your equivalent would be the one beginning all-outlook-cs-cz].

Cab file notes -
1 If you are not familiar with installing Office 2007 updates from cab files, just extract the contents of the first one then double-click on its .msp file to install it and then do the same with the second one.
2 I always keep Task manager in view when I am doing this so I can see an entry for Windows installer appear & then disappear again when the update is complete.

It may well not be the Office updates after all. The Cumulative Update may well be the culprit...

Cumulative Update KB4038788 Windows 10 v1703 Build 15063.608

 

Hello, even my outlook 2007 started to talk half italian and half portuguese (all the default folders were renamed, and some of the menu commands or description too !)).
I tried uninstalling KB4011086 and reinstalling it using the cab corresponding to my language; the installation was successful, but nothing changed in outlook.
I tried to start outlook with the /ResetFolderName switch, but no results.
Any suggestion ?
Thanks in advance
Bruno

 

Bruno,

"using the cab corresponding to my language" - I found that I had to use both my own language cab file and the one beginning all-outlook-x-none

Of course there is always Office diagnostics. I do not know if it will help in this particular case as it might be an update that's at fault. You can run it from any Office application. In Outlook 2007, it is run from Help, Office diagnostics...

[In the other Office 2007 applications it is run from Office button, Options, Resources, Run Microsoft Office diagnostics - Diagnose.]

Tried office 2007 diagnostic, but it did not detect any problem at all. Waiting for further information to accumulate before I touch uninstall/install path

 

Try3, I see, I only applied my language, this evening I'll apply the "all outlook..." cab and I'll let you know.
Thank you very much for your help !

 

Unfortunately the solution did not work for me....I uninstalled again the patch and applied both the cab, rebooted the pc but still the folder have wrong names.
In the meantime, I've heard other people having the same problem, so hopefully Microsoft will work a solution.
Thanks anyway Bruno

 

Good news, outlook is again all italian !
I uninstalled 2 (!) patches with the same number (kb4011086); then I ran the command
outlook /ResetFolderNames
and this solved the problem.
I did not reinstall the cabs....

 

I forgot to say that the command must be executed from the office folder, for me it's
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12"

 

Bruno,

I don't think Microsoft is at all bothered about us Office 2007 users so they might not look at this update again before Tuesday 10th October 2017.

I can understand that you are going to hold off repeating the update until you have made a system image.

The structure of this update was unique. I download all my Office updates directly from the Microsoft update catalog and have never before had to install both an own language component and a "none" component - I always recheck for updates straight after installation so I was able to see straightaway that the update had been incomplete in some way. I suppose that, if an update's installation process is ever going to contain mistakes, it would be when a unique structure had to be coped with.

Denis

 

Roman,

How are you getting on with this?

Denis

 

Hi Try3, so far I am ignoring the problem. I mostly know what the Swedish (?) labels mean because I remember what they said before the update Next week I am switching to new PC anyway (on which I shall install Office 2010 Pro with a virgin license), so one of the alternatives is to forget the whole thing. Wonder whether this issue was nothing but a smart MS move to force Office 2007 users to upgrade?
