Came across a Windows 7 setup with Office Starter 2010 installed. Every time the system boots, after a few minutes we get this annoying popup:
"An update for Microsoft Office Starter 2010 - English is now available online" and a prompt to install it. Clicking cancel doesn't help, it keeps coming back next time.
Changing Windows Update settings didn't help, nor changing File -> options -> Trust settings inside word as found elsewhere.
How to permanently disable automatic updates for office so it never even checks for updates ?

Finally found it. Inside word click:
File -> Help- Then under
Click-to-run product updates Update Options -> Disable updates
Now, why on earth did they put it under File -> Help and nowhere under File -> Options, don't ask me. Welcome to the new ribbon UI, we've made it "easier" to work with !
