Brian, does that maybe mean that I can use MS365 for at
least another 4 or 5 years?
I ask only because I dislike the learning curve on major
new software. And, I am just now becoming comfortable with
MS365.
Thanks in advance,
James B
Alan,
I no longer
remember how or whether Windows 7 archives the updates that are applied, but
Windows 10 keeps track of virtually any update applied to any Microsoft
supplied program on the machine.
I can absolutely assure you, as I used Office 2010 up until about 2,
maybe 3, years ago, there is (or was, now) a constant stream of updates to the
various Office programs even for 2010. On this machine before I finally
got rid of a last bit that the Office 2010 uninstaller left behind I was
getting updates for Office 2010. The last one I got was, February 2, 2021, update for Office 2010 (KB4493180).
So, as per usual, Microsoft does continue issuing certain updates even after
they claim a given product is officially out of support. This drives me
crazy because it sends a really crappy mixed message. But I dumped
Office 2010 simply because it was "showing its age" and there were some
features introduced in later versions of Office that I thought might come in
handy. Don't ask me what those were, as that water's so far under the
bridge that I cannot recall what it was that finally pushed me to
change.
If Windows 7 does update logging you will find these somewhere
in that log. They're classed as "Quality Updates" under the Windows 10
update logging scheme.
