Updating office and getting an error message (Office for Windows)

This is the last Office subscription year I will have, Now almost everyday I need to reinstall office, because it tries to update and then I am not allowed to open Word, almost the only app I use. I am on a 365 subscription and I don't want to have to repair and download 500MB of data every second day only because Microsoft does not assume they have created a problem - as you also did, recently, with Outlook, and it lasted for weeks... -

As I mostly only need Word, I will have to find me a solution that does not force me to repair things every second day. What a stupid bug... And the terrible thing is that my subscription was just renewed - Microsoft did take the money from my bank account automatically - else I would simply stop this madness. Now I've another year of this.

I have a Microsoft 365 family subscription, so whatever it's giving me to download every day is the version I'm using:

Excel (which is the one that I have the most problems with) is version 2005 (Build 12827.20336)

I am able to kill it, and then repair office, but it's slow and aggravating. 

How do I block the update (regedit is fine), because every time it tries and fails, so there's no point in trying.

When Microsoft fixes this problem so that the update will actually "take" it'll be worth updating.

i am getting the same error. funny how ms office misbehaves during this time when i need to prepare for the upcoming online classes and word/powerpoint are required in certain subjects.

Latest Windows update seems to have fixed it
