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.

    I don't have an update KB2767916.

    And yet you still get the stdole32.tlb pop up window and Office 2007 re-configures itself each time you start Excel, Word or Outlook? This solution has worked on over a hundred computers on my network and quite a few users in this discussion stream. Are there any other symptoms?
