Update error code 30088-27 Office 2021 what to do to get corrected????

The 'good' news is, I finally have the most recent version. The 'bad' news is, when clicking "Update Now", it still produces the same popup, with the same 30088-27 error message.

Took your lead and got rid of OneDrive (now that I'm sure the error exists with or without it). I have ZERO use for that "service".

BTW, did you just uninstall it or did you do something else? I just uninstall it from Apps.

Will try to remember to do so ... bit "post it" in my monitors ;)

On the other hand, the thread has gotten so big that is hard to navigate, and search is pretty limited. If anything has worked for anyone and you share them with me via e-mail (pedro.hermida @ innovate-it.us), I promise to compile them, create a separated thread and post the link here.

Excellent idea, Pedro!

Just a suggestion, but if you do start another thread, could you kindly get the words "Office" and "30088-27" in the title (subject line)?

I simply want to be able to find that thread easily through a search on this board. Thanks!

Well, eb (may I call you that?), I agree with you. I suspect one of MS' goals is to eliminate the perpetual licenses so that everyone has to use Office 365. I'm glad that I'm retired and no longer need the latest and greatest in software and, though I enjoy keeping my local network up to date and the data on the various machines synced automatically, I also am pretty sure when support ends for Office 2019 next year that I will just keep using it instead of upgrading to a newer version and that when is no longer usable, I will just revert to the shareware stuff even though I will lose a lot of my network versatility and syncing.

Upgrading Office is always a pain. I have written many database programs and Word and Excel scripts that helped me tremendously in my business that suddenly became useless when a new version of Office comes out with new script requirements that are more complex than I as a non-technical user want to learn or had the time in a small business to learn.

Briefly for information.

I just ran an online update of Microsoft 365 to the official version 2407 (build 17830.20138 - current channel) with OfficeSetup_eng_x64.exe. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/current-channel#version-2407-august-01

The update ran smoothly through, but the error message is STILL there!

I've been giving up believing that Microsoft is or will be able to fix this error!!!
