After installing update 14.6.1 to Office 2011 for Mac OS 10.7.5, Word ceased to open, and SuperDuper would not create a backup clone.

Tried the 'duplicate trick' but got error -36. The error report was as follows:

Error Signature:

The solution was to delete version 14.6.1 of Word and reinstall version 14.6.0 from a backup, after which everything worked as normal.

So, update 14.6.1 needs an update!
