Microsoft AutoUpdate on Mac is consistently showing "download Error" for all available updates...

I'm on "Current Channel (Preview)" and have not been able to do any updates since 4th February, except an update to AutoUpdate 4.44.  Excel and Word are now stuck on 16.58.22020202, and Outlook is stuck on 15.58.22011705

 

Unless any help forthcoming from here, I guess I'll just switch to "Current Channel" and hope its fixed before the next fully supported version update

    I think it has been pulled. I have no updates available now.

    I have had the same error for months. I was able to finally get Microsoft AutoUpdate to finish without error on my "Mac Book Pro M1 Pro"  by doing this....

    Go to "System Setting" then "Network" then "Firewall" and Turn it off.  The run Microsoft AutoUpdate and all updates installed without any issues. After the successful updates,  I simply turned the Firewall back on. Hope this works for anyone dealing with this issue.
