Hi.

Is anyone else having problems updating Office 2011 in an updated Mac OS
X v10.10.5 (Yosemite) machine (15" MacBook Pro Retina; early 2013)?

Microsoft (MS) AutoUpdate says installing Office 2014 14.5.9 Update
failed with "An unexpected error occurred.
These applications were not updated:
Microsoft Excel
Microsoft Word"

I had no problems updating MS AutoUpdate and Office 2016 (I have both
Office versions installed (/Applications/Offce 2011 and
/Applications/Office 2016; never had problems in the past). Office
2011's show these versions for both of its Excel and Word that failed:
14.5.8 (151023). Does Office updater have logs?

Thank you in advance. :)

Also, others like PowerPoint and Outlook after I ran them. :/

I also manually downloaded and ran
https://download.microsoft.com/download/4/3/B/43B9AC64-FC80-414F-ABB8-8876339C828A/Office2011-1459Update_EN-US.dmg,
but I got denied as shown in my Loading Image... screen

OK. I figured it out. It doesn't like the renamed installation location.
I renamed it back to "Microsoft Office 2011", and now the updaters work.
Sheesh!!
