Everytime I run Excel 2007 in windows 10, the stdole32.tlb box comes up and it has to reconfigure itself.  How do I stop this?

The fix to this problem is simply uninstall KB2767916, restart your computer and then run updates again. That's all.

  Hi Jeff,

           That sounds a very simple fix to the small problem. A question though, how does one - "non computer buff" - search for update KB2767916? When I try to type on cortana search bar I cant - another small problem!

Thanks.

Go to CONTROL PANEL (windows key + r, then type control and press enter).

Click on PROGRAMS and FEATURES.

On left side of screen click on VIEW INSTALLED UPDATES.

Look for the update - "Update for Microsoft Office 2007 suites (KB2767916) 32-bit Edition."

Uninstall it then restart your computer and run windows updates again.

    This was one of the most helpful, and easiest fixes I have ever encountered.  Worked great!  I am grateful I can still use the Microsoft Office 2007 that my mom bought me for Christmas about 10 years ago.  Excel is one of my favorite programs.

    I was skeptical, but uninstalling KB2767916 actually worked to remove that annoying pop up! I did not run updates yet, however.

    I suppose that MS will come up with something else to thwart continued use of Office 2007 products, but until then, I will continue using it.
