Beware of Office 2010 Updates!


Recommended Posts

  • 4 weeks later...

A bit late reporting this time, but a cornucopia of no less than seven Office 2010 updates this month.
To paraphrase Mark Twain, reports of the End of Life of Office 2010 have obviously been greatly exaggerated!
:D

KB2553491 Office
KB2589361 Office
KB4504739 Office
KB3017810 Excel
KB4504738 Office
KB4493185 Outlook
KB4493218 Word
:)

Thanks, Dave!

I think my supersedence chart is all up to date: https://w2k.phreaknet.org/files/o2010.xlsx

Anyone have any of these and able to say what the version numbers since 2020/10 have been?

It's funny, because Microsoft's O2010 page says "The last updates for O2010 were from October, 2020".

Clearly, Microsoft's different departments are not communicating, probably the patch people don't even know support has "ended"! Or maybe this is internal resistance against Office 365. Either way, thanks, Microsoft!

Or maybe this is external pressure from the US Department of Homeland Security.

No Office 2010 updates offered this month.
This could well finally be the end.
:(

Yes, I saw that too.
Still, I guess we did have six months more updates than we expected, so can't complain!
:)
Now we know that version 14.0.7268.5000 of the Office 2010 MSO.DLL is the last one, I wonder if anyone could modify it to be XP compatible..........?
:dubbio:

I've downloaded KB4504738. How can I extract mso.dll

7-zip can do it (provided you know your way to a Win98 compatible version of 7-zip); on Vista SP2 32-bit with latest 7-zip alpha (21.02a), I opened file mso2010-kb4504738-fullfile-x86-glb.exe with 7-zip and then proceeded to open (still in 7-zip) file mso-x-none.msp; of its contents, there's a file named PATCH_CAB; once you open that, too, you're presented with file MSO.DLL.x86; choose "copy" and save it to a location on your disk; once extracted, simply rename to mso.dll and Bob's your unkle!
