Microsoft has released Service Pack 1 for Office 2013, SharePoint 2013 and Exchange Server 2013 and you should be able to see it being offered by your Microsoft Updates any day. This Service Pack 1 will deliver expanded functionality, greater stability, security enhancements and improved compatibility with Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2.
While I can currently see it being offered by my Windows 8.1 , Microsoft says that Office 2013 customers will begin to get notifications of SP1 availability through Windows Update within the next 30 days.
Customers who have an Office 365 subscription, have nothing to do as they are always kept up to date and will get the SP1 changes automatically in their next regular update.
Exchange Server 2013 and SharePoint 2013 customers can download SP1 at the Microsoft download center.
Office 2013 Service Pack 1 new features:
- Better compatibility with Windows 8.1 and Internet Explorer 11.
