I have Skype4B 2016 installed on my machine. Its version 16.0.4266.1003.
While trying to install that security update: lync2016-kb2910994-fullfile-x64-glb.exe, I am getting the following error message:
Security Update for Skype for Business 2016 (KB2910994) 64-Bit Edition
—————————
There are no products affected by this package installed on this system.
Are you running the O365 (Click to Run) Version or the MSDN version?
The original installation en_office_professional_plus_2016_x86_x64_dvd_6962141.iso came from the MSDN. 64-bit version was installed.
It seems that I discovered what prevents the update to be installed.
The installation package comes compressed with the XML file inside for version checking.
That XML file contains the following fragment below.
It seems that the expected Skype4B version to be updated is 16.0.4266.1001.
Though my machine has Skype4B 16.0.4266.1003 version.
Go figure…
