How to update MS Word 

• In order to update MS word you need to visit the Microsoft Office Official website, which is office.microsoft.com
• Click on the Microsoft Word link you see on the home page.
• To check for updates, click on “Check for Microsoft Updates" button.
• When the Microsoft Update page opens, you can see two options, namely “Express” and “Custom” installations.
• If you need only the high-priority updates, click on Express. If you need all possible Microsoft Office updates, choose Custom. The default suggestion from Microsoft is to choose Express.
• Once you click on either of these update options, it will start a scan on your computer to check what all updates are required. The scanning might take several seconds to several minutes depending upon the amount of updates needed. If you haven’t done any recent updates, it will take some time, whereas the scanning completes quickly if you had performed any recent updates on your system.
• Once the scanning is complete, you will get a page which displays all the high-priority updates that your system needs (in case of Express).
• To start the update, click on "Install Updates". This will start downloading the latest updates and will get installed into your system. 
• After the updates are downloaded and installed, you must restart your system in order to take effect the newly installed updates. You may either click “Close” to finish the update or click “Restart Now" to complete the update. As soon as the system is rebooted, Microsoft Office will be installed with new updates. 

From this page, you can also find updates for your other MS Office applications. You can follow the same procedure to install the updates for other Microsoft applications too. Any queries or doubts on this can be cleared by going to Microsoft FAQ forums or Microsoft Support Center.
