    Will Reinstalling Windows 10 affect Microsoft Office 2016 updates?


    I'm planning to reinstall windows 10 and I know that it will remove Windows updates etc. Will it also remove Microsoft Office 2016 updates? Thanks

    That depends on how you plan on reinstalling Windows 10.

    Do it this way and you lose everything, including all your data files and Office 2016 completely, including updates. You will have to reinstall everything:
    Windows 10 - Clean Install - Windows 10 Forums

    Do it this way, and you only refresh Windows 10 itself and nothing else should be affected, including Office 2016:

    Thanks boss

    Just wanted to clarify if the repair install will affect the Office Updates since it is listed on the Windows Update list.
