Outloook 2010 Starting in Safe Mode?

Microsoft recently released a bad Windows Update (KB3114409) which caused Outlook 2010 to start loading in safe mode for multiple clients of mine.  This update has recently been recalled by Microsoft due to the number of issues it caused.

In the event your company installed it across multiple workstations, you can quietly uninstall it across all computers.

One of the easiest ways to do this is creating a Startup Script with Group Policy and create a batch script with the following command:


C:\Windows\System32\wusa.exe /uninstall /kb:3114409 /quiet /norestart


Make sure the batch file is launched via a Startup Script and not a logon script.  Logon Scripts in Group Policy require users to have local administration rights to make system wide changes (something which is not best practice).  Startup Scripts will run under the SYSTEM account with administrative rights.
