    office 2007 SP2 update but i have office 2010


    i have got office 2010 pro plus but i have just got a windows update for office 2007 SP2

    im guessing it isnt right so should i just hide the update or install it?
    i havent got it on any other pc's with win7+office 2010 just the one i use most often

    I would probably hide it

    Unless you have anything left over from 2007, Project or Visio for example.

    it could also have been triggered by an add-on designed for 2007 that's reporting incorrectly

    Technically, applying the update should just throw an exception stating does not apply to your system, but hiding is often the best way as it has no potential side effects :)

    You stated you used to have Office 2007. Chances are that a few registry entries or files got left behind when it was removed, resulting in Windows Update mistakenly thinking you still had it.
