For Office 2007 File Validation IssueGo to C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download

Find OFV.CAB and extract it.

You'll have OFV.msi

Install it and hit Retry on Windows Update.

    Yes, this seems to have worked.  The next day, when I opened Updates in Settings, I searched for updates and the add-in was installed immediately.

    Oddly, though, Windows also installed a couple updates for Office 2010 . . . which I do not have.  Harumph!

    The trouble shooter won't find or fix this issue.  And you need to install the update for the validation/activation tool to work.  The update will work, just takes a little time (about a day) and you have 30 days for it to work and activate it.  I just ignored it, Office 2007 worked fine and it installed the update and loaded the EULA just fine the next say.

    I started from a clean windows 10 ver 2004 install

    Hi, I am Nigel, Independent Advisor here to work with you on this issue.

    The windows update error 0x80240023 relates to WU_E_EULAS_DECLINED.

    The license terms for all updates were declined

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deploy...

    Please can you confirm that both Windows and Microsoft Office are fully activated.

    For Windows 10

    Click the Start button, then click the Settings button to open settings.

    On Windows Settings, click Update & Security.

    On the left side, click Troubleshoot, then click Windows Update on the tab that will appear on the right side.

    This will run the trouble-shooter and apply fix to the problem.

    After this is done, run Windows Update again to see if the problem was fixed.

    Hope this helps!

    Feel free to ask back any questions and let me know how it goes.
