Update method 2016 MSO (16.0.5254.1001) 64-bit

Question

Hello, I used excel version (16.0.4266.1001) 64-bit.

I should update the current version as (16.0.5254.1001) - KB5002033.

So, I installed KB5002033 then apply this file but it doesn't work. I mean still 16.0.4266.1001

Could you let me know the method of applying new excel version?

Answer 1

Hi,

If you have already installed the KB5002033 update manually, the "Update Now" option should check for any remaining updates and install them. However, if you are still not seeing the updated version after applying the KB5002033 update and running the "Update Now" process, there might be some other issues.

Here are a few additional steps you can try:

• Restart your computer
• Check for Windows Updates
• Repair Office Installation

If none of these steps resolve the issue and you're still unable to update Excel to the latest version, I'd recommend you reach out to Microsoft Support.

Hi,

I suggest you refer to this support article:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/description-of-the-security-update-for-office-2016-december-14-2021-kb5002033-8a1cee5a-fa4a-48b9-ae5a-60477af79388

As the article said: "Be aware that the update in the Microsoft Download Center applies to the Microsoft Installer (.msi)-based edition of Office 2016. It doesn't apply to the Office 2016 Click-to-Run editions, such as Microsoft Office 365 Home. (See What version of Office am I using?)"
