    Hi,

    Last time that I've installed Windows 7 in my PC (less than 1 month) I saw that Windows Update fetch all updates except the updates of Office 2016.

    Did anyone have this issue? I'm asking this because I have audio issues in Windows 10 and I thinking to go back to Windows 7 or 8.1.

    Thanks in advance!

    And how Office 2016 update? Or simply Office 2016 didn't update in Windows 7?

    Well, If I have audio issues I'll install Windows 8.1.
    Thanks!

    Follow these steps:
    Step 1: Type Windows Update in Start menu or Start screen search box, and press Enter key to open Windows Update window.
    Step 2: On the left-pane, click Change settings link.
    Step 3: Under Microsoft Update section, check the option labelled Give Me updates for other Microsoft products when I update Windows. Click OK button.

    Now you should receive updates for Office2016 in WindowsUpdate.

    Yes, you use C2R version not Volume Edition. MSDN is retail (c2r)
    EDIT: I can confirm that Office 2016 didnt get updates in Windows 7
