Problem Installing Office Pro Plus 2021 locally via officedeploymenttool


Maybe just install as normal without the xml stuff and accept that your installing the whole package then.......sucks but unless I play around more not sure what's going on. Also, make sure to enable uac to always notify. You should never need to disable it.

You could also ask for microsoft support, you bought the product after all and it does come with install support

Also, I just noticed your Product ID is set to ProPlus20231Retail. You probably meant ProPlus2021Retail. Note the extra 3 in yours.

Yep, I saw that. We deploy 365, but I'm downloading 2021 now to see if I can troubleshoot more.

Yep, taking out the SourcePath attribute fixes the "we weren't able to download a required file" problem. Fixing the Product ID in the latest XML file was also necessary.

I have been trying to install a subset of Office(2016) applications for several years now (on and off) including all of the methods described on this page.
I got nothing but error messages (most of which discussed in this thread btw).

Then I gave THIS post a try. I had to intuitively wing it through the Office Tool Plus GUI especially when I wanted to start installation (button is on the top most section (aptly named 'Deploy'), but as you work from top to bottom you somehow expect the 'Start Installation' button at the bottom. No biggie.

Worked AT THE FIRST TRY ! I was totally flabbergasted and couldn't believe my eyes!
Excellent tip, this one. Thanks very much indeed.
