Install Updates and Using Desk Icons

First I would like to say this is something which, if it expands to include Publisher, and Access, it will be great for me, because of my age and doing work with clients who are an hour or more away. With winter approaching – I do think ahead – work can be reviewed one on one.

However, one problem is I getting are the messages to install Office Live Updates. The second problem is and others here about in the forums speak about desktop icons which open directly into Workspace.

OK so I know some things, but not all can anyone decipher the following and advise how to install and then have icons show on the desktop for the Live Workspace?

"An error occurred while installing updates for Office Live Update. Setup cannot continue until all updates have been successfully installed."

Under Details the following is noted:

Update Office 2007 update (KB 941637) has failed to install.

The following updates were not installed:

- Windows Vista update (KB 948531)

- Windows Live Sign-in Assistant

The following updates failed to install:

- Office 2007 update (KB 941637)

 

See the setup log file located at 'C:\Users\FRED\AppData\Local\Temp\VSDE485.tmp\install.log' for more information.

Re: Install Updates and Using Desk Icons

Hi, 

If your computer has Microsoft Visual Studio or Microsoft Expression Web installed, it may cause this error message when you try to install Office Live Add-in. To avoid this error, remove the Microsoft Visual Web Authoring Component from your computer:

  1. On the Start menu, click Control Panel.
  2. Double-click Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Features.
  3. In the list of currently installed programs, select Microsoft Visual Web Authoring Component , and then click Uninstall or Remove. If a dialog box appears, follow the instructions to remove the program.
  4. Click Yes or OK to confirm that you want to remove the program.

In case you really need this component you can try installing Office 2007 update (KB 941637) manually:

  1. Request and download hotfix (KB 941637) from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/941637
  2. Extract the patch by typing "office-kb941637-fullfile-x86-glb.exe /extract:C:\Temp" in the command line
  3. Execute mso.msp file to install the patch

Re: Install Updates and Using Desk Icons

Thank-you so much, Good Grief, I have to get use to looking deeper into additional answers here, I thank-you very much for your time to answer my question. Now, I see others have had the same problem.  I have deleted the file and will try again to install, after I finish backing up my files this evening. I am sure it will work, again thank-you for your time and trouble.
