Office Updates every morning
Hi, for most of the users Office updates itself every morning. This is very annoying because when e.g writing an email Outlook closes itself without notification. For some users it is sufficient ...
uhewuihiu Hi, never heard anything like that before so this is just a wild guess. Any chance you haven't configured the following setting?
Also guessing this could be set right now
Hi, setting from first link was not configured, but to be honest, I don't quite believe that this will affect us:
This policy setting enables programmatic control of Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise.
If you enable this policy setting, Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager or other application management solutions can manage Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise. After applying the policy setting, you need to restart the Office Click-to-Run service.
We do not use a management solution. Just WSUS.
Settings from 2nd link was activated via GPO (automatic updates for Office)
Our settings are set to directly update from CDN, no local source and no other management solutionen.
Even purging office ( deleting everything in the user app data folder) and re-installing via "setup.exe /configure .abc.xml" does not remove this strange behaviour.
- Still an issue? Obviously you’re not using the channels as the automatic updates are running. Why don’t you open up a support ticket with Microsoft. It’s too difficult without knowing the big picture. These kind of issues really need to be analyzed properly, collecting logs etc. Microsoft can assist with that.
