You may have Microsoft Update {
www.update.microsoft.com }. Both Windows
Update and Microsoft Update are called Windows Update on your computer. You
just go to the Microsoft Update site. Years ago, before Vista, Microsoft
offered an update on the old Windows Update site that actually converted
your computer to use Microsoft Update. Try the above link, if it does not
find Microsoft Update on your computer, you will be offered it.
However, there is a second step you need to take after you go to Microsoft
Update. You need to tell it to offer updates for other Microsoft products.
Suggest you open Windows Update on your computer and look for the other
Microsoft products option. {I am using Windows 7, so I cannot go back and
tell you where the option is located.}
