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.

    If you've already removed KN2767916 then I would suggest just shutting down your computer and restarting. Once you're back up run Windows Update. That will install any updates needed without having to go through the extra steps you mentioned.

    Hey Jeff,

    I'm not all that savvy but was wondering if it would be ok to download the update KB2767916. Then restart the pc and then remove that update? I'm not sure how it all works but don't see any harm? 

    I had the update and removed it along with a few others relating to Office 2007 as someone had offered up that solution before I came across your original post.

    Thanks for the help.
