2020-07-07T12:15:19+00:00 me too same situation like yours I tried to install (Paid/Legal Key) Office 2007 on a new acer desktop. Win 10 Ver 2004 All security updates were installed, but I started getting ERROR 0x80240023 for Microsoft Office File Validation Add-in......
I just tried to run windows update and i too think maybe the problem is or could be with Office 2007 thing- all other updates for Office 2007 went thru successfully and no problem issues with installations.
I tried most of what i read here on the forums and it didn't help....
maybe like Robert NJackson says ...I'll wait for a day and Hope to see if this problem 0x80240023 goes away on its own....
