• July updates out – still tracking Office updating issues

    Posted on July 9, 2024 at 12:15 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    July updates are out and as usual Microsoft is dribbling out changes.

    At this time we are tracking an issue with SOME (not all) Office 2019 installs. My advice is to sit tight and not start ripping out Office.

    In addition, you might start seeing the name of Outlook change to “classic” Outlook. Remember we’re in this awkward transition right now between classic Outlook (aka the one that works) and New Outlook (aka the one that is missing features like offline use, support for plug ins – they have to be rewritten). My advice if you are on Microsoft 365 is to ensure you are on the slower patching channel. More in next week’s Patch Watch.

    For now settle in, ensure your backups are working, let those that test these patches do their thing and I’ll be running my own tests on various workstations, servers, etc., as well as keeping an eye out for side effects.

    Adobe released updates for Premier Pro, InDesign and Bridge (nothing for PDF)

    Here are some of the changes for Windows 10:

    Note this is JUST for EU:

    • New!  We are advancing the Copilot experience on Windows. The Copilot app is now pinned to the taskbar and behaves like an app. This gives you the benefits of a typical app experience. For example, you can resize, move, and snap the window. For existing Windows 10 PCs, the timing of availability and delivery method will vary. This might not be available to all users because it will roll out gradually.Important This feature only applies to new Windows 10 PCs and new Copilot+ PCs that ship to the European Economic Area (EEA)and other markets where Copilot is available.
