Review of the Office 2016 update KB500270<\/h2>\n

\"\"Update KB5002700<\/a> fwas released on April 8, 2025. This update closes a number of security vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-29791<\/a>,\u00a0CVE-2025-29792<\/a>,\u00a0CVE-2025-29816<\/a>,\u00a0CVE-2025-27745<\/a>,\u00a0CVE-2025-27748<\/a>,\u00a0CVE-2025-27749<\/a> and\u00a0\u00a0CVE-2025-27752<\/a>). The installation of the security update is urgently required.<\/p>\n

However, installing the update caused the Office 2016 applications Excel, Outlook and Word to crash. I reported on the problems with Outlook in the blog post Outlook 2016: Calendar access blocked after April 2025 update KB5002700<\/a> and mentioned disabling weather integration as a workaround.<\/p>\n

In the blog post Word\/Excel 2016 crashing after April 2025 update KB5002700<\/a>\u00a0crashes in Word 2016 and Excel 2016 were mentioned. There was a suspicion that a PDF plugin could be the cause. However, I have different feedback, for some readers it helped to change an Adobe PDF plugin in the settings, for others not.<\/p>\n

Update KB5002623 fixes the issues<\/h2>\n

German blog reader Michael wrote in this comment<\/a> on April 10, 2025 that Microsoft had probably released a fix that he had not yet tested and that does not appear in the WSUS.<\/p>\n

Microsoft has published a support article on the Office 2016 update KB5002623<\/a> with more detailed information. The update only applies to the MSI installer versions of Microsoft Office 2016 and is intended to fix a known issue with the KB5002700 update for Microsoft Office 2016 from April 8, 2025. The known issue is that Microsoft Word 2016, Microsoft Excel 2016 and Microsoft Outlook 2016 no longer respond.<\/p>\n

You have to download and install the update via the links in the support article from the MS download area. In the meantime, several blog readers have confirmed in comments that the crashes in Microsoft Word 2016, Microsoft Excel 2016 and Microsoft Outlook 2016 no longer occur.<\/p>\n
