Microsoft has released the November 2020 non-security Microsoft Office updates with performance enhancements and fixes for known issues impacting Windows Installer editions of Office 2016 products.
Four of the Office November 2020 non-security updates apply to the entire Microsoft Office 2016 software suite, while five others address issues impacting standalone Office products like Word, Project, and Visio.
The November 2020 updates released can be manually installed from the Download Center or automatically by using the Microsoft Update service.
These updates apply to Microsoft Installer-based Office products only and do not apply to Office subscription or Office 2016 Click-to-Run editions such as Microsoft Office 365 Home.
Depending on the Office update you are using, you may also have to apply other updates for some of the fixed issues to be completely addressed on your device.
