One of the things that I always used to neglect to do, was update Office regularly. Office is a Microsoft product, and thus it integrates into your computer. While this is a huge plus for the user, it also creates a big security risk and a window for hackers and viruses. Microsoft releases updates regularly, however, if you donÂ’t go to the Office Update, then you canÂ’t get the fixes (office update is separate from windows update). This guide will show you how to create a Office Update Shortcut in your start menu
Open Internet Explorer type the following into the address line:
http://office.microsoft.com/officeupdate/mainCatalog.aspx
Click Favorites then Add to Favorites
Then navigate to your Favorites Folder C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\My Favorites
Where YourUserName is whatever your login username is
There will be a Microsoft Office Icon, simply click on it and drag it to the start button to create a start menu shortcut.
Now whenever you want to run office update scan simply click on start then click on the Office Update shortcut you created.
