Anyone successfully using MSUpdateHelper4JamfPro script with MS Office 16.16.4 and msupdate 4.5?

I'm trying to test deploying the Office 2016 version 16.16.4/16.16.18111001 updates released yesterday with the msupdate tool using @pbowden's MSUpdateHelper4JamfPro script. It had been working fine through Office 2016 version 16.16.3 and msupdate 4.4. With msupdate 4.5, calling MSUpdateHelper4JamfPro to install version 16.16.18111001, or 16.16.4, results in no updates being applied and no errors reported. If I call the msupdate tool directly to list any available updates it does show the 16.16.4 (18111001) update as available for all 4 of the Office 2016 apps. Anyone else seeing this problem and/or found a solution? Thanks.

Hello,

Same here. Unable to update Office 2016 from 16.16.8 to 16.16.9 with the script, "no updates being applied". Locally on the mac in command line, the update is OK.
Same with Office 2019 from 16.23 to 16.24 (I've updated the script with 2019 apps IDs).
So I'm unable to update Office remotely at this time...
Any help is welcome.

Thank you.

@Jul Have you pushed the updated version of Microsoft Auto Update 4.10.19041401 to all of your Macs? Generally you need to push the latest MAU before you can use the script to update to the latest Office apps. I have successfully updated from 16.16.8 to 16.16.9 following that pattern.

@sdagley Yes! Latest MAU version (4.10.19041401) was installed before I tried to update Office with the script.
