When I installed Office 2010, I marked all the elements I didn't want (Sharepoint, Visio, Outlook etc) as Not Available. I saw the amount of space required for the installation decrease as I did this.
Now I've received MS notification that there are high priority fixes for Office 2010 and among them are lots of fixes for these elements which I thought I had not installed e.g. Outlook
So why am I getting high priority fixes for Outlook, Visio, Sharepoint 2010 etc?
Did marking them Not Available during the installation process not install them or were they installed but just not activated?
Thanks

Re: 2010 installation question
As far as I know, the applications themselves are not installed, but any Office installation contains components that let Office applications collaborate, including applications you didn't install; it's probably too complicated to leave out such components. As a result, you still get updated for applications you don't have. I wouldn't worry about it and just install them.
Best wishes,
