Microsoft’s update woes are far from over it seems. This time around, the company had to pull a couple of updates for Office 2010 suite—specifically KB2863821 and KB4461522, which were released on November 6 and November 20, respectively. Microsoft pulled the update and is asking people who’ve installed it to remove it from their systems saying users “may experience crashes in Microsoft Access or other applications.”

The other update KB4461529, which was released on November 13, is also causing crashes for Outlook but Microsoft decided against pulling this update because it also included security updates that help stop Office users’ from being attacked. Microsoft has acknowledged the issue though and is reportedly telling affected users to access Outlook from the web instead of using the app. Now, here’s to hoping this gets fixed soon.
