You are trying to deploy Microsoft office updates but the deployment fails with the error message:
"OfficeUpdateError:Installer was unable to run detection for this package."
You might face the above mentioned scenario if the Windows installer could not detect the folder - "c:\MSOCache". This folder is mandatory for updating the Microsoft Office applications. This folder might have been removed from the computer manually or while running a system cleap up tool.
It is recommened to reinstall Microsoft Office to get this fixed. To know more about this, refer to this article http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/officeitpro/thread/0fc19a3a-60de-4463-9dcf-8dd02c02ca0d
