So, moved to WIN7(x64) from XP, installed Office 2010 (32bit) but stupidly managed to turn off updates at install time.

Windows Update now says I’m getting updates for Windows only; if I click the link for finding out about updates for other products it takes me to MS site that simply says “…use your start button for updates…”


Is there a registry entry I can reset to get Windows Update to pick Office updates?

The problem has now gone away!!   See screenshots below,

 

  • The top one says You receive updates for Windows only
  • The bottom one says You receive updates for Windows and other products…
Only change: I just installed MS Essentials and the first scan just finished.

 

 

 

Thanks all, I assume installing MS Essentials somehow reset the Office updates indicator?!
