updating office 2016

[mrstrong]

Hi,

 

we are still using microsoft office professional plus 2016

 

Whats the best / easiest way to update it?

 

We have WSUS so probably that!

 

Is there a recommended way to find and approve latest updates.

(I've always found the WSUS interface confusing )

 

Also is there a site that lists MS updates, e.g. KB, release date/notes etc

I've seen https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/

anything better ?

should have said on msi vol license not c2r

 

found https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/

then https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/office-updates-msi

then https://support.microsoft.com/help/5000653

 

so is it just as simple as search in WSUS for

KB4493196

KB4493189

KB4493190

KB4493164

 

approve and all up to date / job done ?

Office 2016 works fine with WSUS. You can certainly do it other ways - direct to Windows Update, for instance. Office 2019 doesn't work with WSUS, so bear that in mind.

cheers, but am i correct in thinking those 4 updates from

https://support.microsoft.com/help/5000653

are all i need e.g. they include everything (security / bug fixes / new features delivered as a cumulative / roll up or whatever MS call it these days)

Those certainly look like the newest round of updates, but that may not be everything as Office updates aren't always cumulative. You'd need to see if older ones have been superseded.
