just updated Office 365 to latest version and found that this breaks PHPMaker that I got working again from a disaster recovery image taken on 29th.
office 365 version 2106 (Build 14131.20278) which was released on 29th June breaks it.to resolve this (and confirm it is related) I downloaded the 365 installer
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=49117run and extract it to a folder
then ignore the xml config files and create new one called config.xml containing the following: (see TargetVersion attribute)
<Configuration>
<Updates Enabled="TRUE" TargetVersion="16.0.14026.20308" />
</Configuration>
save to same folder as setup exe filethe open admin cmd windows and run command: setup.exe /configure config.xmlthis will pop up office installer and then disappear
open Word and run update Now - this will start the “update” but download the version 2105 (Build14026.20308) - it will prompt to close word when ready to install then reopen word once down. go to updates and disable updates, reboot PCthat solved it for meSee article from Microsoft support for details: How to revert to an earlier version of Office.
