    Office 2010 update being offered for no reason


    7pro x64

    I am being offered an update for office 2010 (KB2881030), but 2007 is the only one ever installed. What's up with that? Is there a way I can root out and eliminate whatever is triggering this?

    Sometimes a later version update is offered if it will fix a problem, or improve an earlier version as well.

    Don't worry about it & just go ahead & install it.
