I wouldn't have known how to do that. On Sunday my brother was about to
install a memory chip on my computer, and when I turned it off it made 22
updates. When we turned it back on, the fan stopped spinning, so my brother
had to buy a new fan, take the computer apart, install the new fan, and
after that it worked okay.
I was reviewing some mail and came across a message about updating Adobe
Flash Player, and went to the link specified to see if the player was up to
date. The link said the player was up to date, but recommended something
called Ninite Net to update other programs on my system. I checked the
checkboxes for apps I thought I would want to automatically update
(including the Microsoft package), started the updating process, closed; and
the next morning Microsoft Word wasn't the same as before. Perhaps during
the download process Microsoft changed some configurations and wanted me to
validate or verify my copy of Office Works or something, and required
entering a product key or code to activate the current copy. I already
explained in an earlier message what happened when we removed Word 2007 and
how it blew 2003 away with it.
I wish there was a way to undo whatever I did that evening and restore Word
to its previous state, if possible. Thanks again for your feedback.

Did you try using a restore point to restore your system to a time before
you made the changes? Just a thought.
