Windows 10 Pro Same updates, Install Multiple times!

I have a Windows 10 Pro workstation which has Office 365 Pro Plus 2016 installed. The system Info is below.

Windows 10 Pro Info:

Version = 1703

Build = 15063.674

Subscription Product

Office 365 ProPlus 2016

Version = 1705

Build = 8201.2193 Click-To-Run

Deferred Channel

The question I have is why does the following two updates keep reinstalling successfully and how do I correct this?

Security Update for Microsoft Office 2010 (KB2553338) 64-Bit Edition

Update for Microsoft Office 2010 (KB3114750) 64-Bit Edition

"officebackgroundtaskhandler.exe" occasionally opens and closes the command prompt

Just wanted to inform Microsoft I am experiencing the same issue on my system

Windows 10 Pro (64Bit)

Version 1703

OS Build 15063.296

Office 365 ProPlus (Office 2016 Local Install)

Version 1704 (Build 8067.2115 Click-to-run)

The Command-prompt pops up occasionally, but more often than once an hour.

When you are working on documents or in the explorer (changing filenames) and the popup occurs you are forced outside the application you're working in, and in case of changing a filename, that is cancelled the moment the popup occurs. You will have to do
the filenamechange again.

It's annoying and should not work this way. It is disruptive in any way, and should be solved with the next update of windows or office.
