Shortly after the release of the June Public Update, we received notification of a potential issue affecting a subset of Office 2013 Click-to-Run users. In some cases, users running Office 2013 may not be able to launch Office products after the June Public updates are installed. The Office team is aware of this issue and is working on a solution.
Although we have seen this impact less than 1% of our user base, we consider this a high priority issue. For users who have encountered this, the following Microsoft Answers post (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-office_install/i-cannot-open-any-office-programs-after-installing/7faab63f-7a27-4138-a834-e72df884fc40?tm=1402703347975&rtAction=1402703371948) describes steps to resolve the issue.

Maintaining some perspective to the suggestion that this affects a small number of users is simply that 1% of 10,000,000 would be 100,000   While i do not know how many users are on Office 2013, I suspect the actual number of affected people, while a low percentage, is a huge number of upset customers.  Microsoft should indeed consider this a high priority issue LOL!

My Office 2013 x64 is not having any problems and I have asked in my MVP connections if both versions are affected or just Office 2013 x86 or Office 2013 x64?
