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.

    Hi Nigel,

    The error cleared the next day after posting this.  I clicked the "Retry" button and the license agreement came up, I accepted it, and the error cleared (update installed).

    Thanks and have great day:)!

    I encountered the same problem with the latest Windows 10 version 2004 release. The way I "got around it" was to run the Microsoft "Windows Update Show/Hide utility": wushowhide.

    It allows you to hide the problem update. Not a fix, but prevents the error from showing and allows updates to complete without error.
