Delete unused SP1 Office Update files

M

Michael Vestel

I used the Office Update "Check for Updates" to check for
updates to Office 2003. Unfortunately there was a problem
installing it. I ended up solving the problem by
downloading the file (Office2003SP1-kb842532-fullfile-
enu.exe) and installing it successfully from a hard drive.
The file was found at:


http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?
FamilyId=9C51D3A6-7CB1-4F61-837E-
5F938254FC47&displaylang=en

Office2003SP1-kb842532-fullfile-enu.exe: Download this
file if you do not have access to your original product CD-
ROM or if you have experienced problems installing the
Office2003SP1-kb842532-client-enu.exe file.

I know that the original files were downloaded to my hard
drive during the Office Update because when I tried to re-
install the update using the office Update (before using
Office2003SP1-kb842532-fullfile-enu.exe) it told me the
files were already downloaded. In addition, the size of my
hard drive space dropped by 100MB about. I'd like to
delete them now as I downloaded the fullfile update and
want the space back (its an olde computer with only 2GB
and I only have 700 MB free)

Question: Where are the files downloaded to my hard drive
used for the Office Update, specifically those accociated
with SP1. I want to find and delete them..

Thanks.

Office Update is found here:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdate/default.aspx
and looks like this:

2gb drive? - Office2003 requires approx 500mb, yr brave.
The download file will be stored, wherever you elected to save it to,
possibly c:\download

Question: Where are the files downloaded to my hard drive
used for the Office Update (http://office.microsoft.com/en-
us/officeupdate/default.aspx), specifically those
associated with SP1. I want to find and delete them. These
are downloaded without asking me where to put them,
because its part of the Web version update, not a file I
download/save and run.

A web update doesnt save any files, other than uninstall info, if uninstall
is an option.
