tistou77 Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Hello all Sorry in advance if this is not the right place to ask this. I'm currently using Office 2016 Standard (just need Word and Excel) And I remove the components from this window on installation (image taken from internet) With the 2019 and later versions, there are only the C2R versions and choosing the components to install is not as "complete" (with ODT) Will there be a solution to have the same results as with "msi" style installations (like office 2016) ? Thanks for you help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbrother Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Curious...can you explain "not as complete"? As for offline installation of M$ Off 2k19, have you tried the downloading the .img file then mounting and/or extracting to install? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tistou77 Posted May 12, 2023 Author Share Posted May 12, 2023 @kyber Thanks, I had already tried and from memory it was not conclusive, but I will try again (it may have changed since) @bigbrother In fact with the Office 2016 installation (with the installation customization window), Office has a size of about 800MB on disk (Word and Excel) With 2019 or 2021, it's more than 2GB (Word and Excel) using ODT With 2016, I can remove many more components from the installation What do you mean by "then mounting and/or extracting to install" ?

If you download the complete .img file then mount it to a virtual drive and/or extract it to a temporary directory, you can initiate the Office install without using a app to download it from the web. As of late, I've not tested this method, however you may or may not have a "more complete" choice of options during the install routine. Simply making the suggestion based upon your request. ~Cheers~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tistou77 Posted May 13, 2023 Author Share Posted May 13, 2023 Yes I download the image and can open it with Winrar or other But I still don't see how to do a custom install. 😁 I will try again with YAOCTRI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xkryptonx Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Or alternatively, you can use KMS tools by Ratiborus. It offers to install individual office products. It has a GUI. Can also be use for other purpose 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tistou77 Posted May 15, 2023 Author Share Posted May 15, 2023 (edited) Thanks for your help I tested YAOCTRIR again, and nothing new since the last time I tested it, many more components can be removed with the "msi" installation of the 2016 What I "remove" from the installation with 2016 And in addition, there is always this C2R service with these versions😁 I will see if I keep the 2016 or if I switch to the 2021 Currently I am bothered with the MAK key of the 2016, the next installation, I will have to find a new key (I changed a component in my PC) Edited May 15, 2023 by tistou77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbrother Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Curious...if you ONLY want/need Excel & Word, have you considered the stand-alone image files instead of disabling everything in the office suite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tistou77 Posted May 22, 2023 Author Share Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) @bigbrother Yes I just downloaded the Word image and the Excel image, but with the 2019 and 2021 versions, it seems that the image is complete (with all the components) Or are you talking about the 2016 version? Maybe I'll get used to the idea and install the 2021 version with the components that I don't need (the ones that I remove with the 2016 like languages, Graph, Query, etc....) and the C2R service mandatory Otherwise, the Office team no longer helps with the activation of the 2016 versions ? Just the 2019 and 2021 versions in "Requests" Thanks for your help Edited May 22, 2023 by tistou77 bigbrother 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tistou77 Posted May 25, 2023 Author Share Posted May 25, 2023 (edited) Thanks so much for your help, if I choose "Office products", then "Add new request", in the drop-down list, there is no Office 2016 What should I choose ? At the moment I haven't installed the new component (SSD) yet and reinstall Windows, so no need for a new Office 2016 MAK activation I still use the one that a nice forumer gave me on this forum 1 or 2 years ago and I activate with the CID The number of activation of the key being "limited" I prefer to ask when I need it And if I decide to switch to the 2019 or 2021 version, I will have a retail license Regards Edited May 25, 2023 by tistou77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tistou77 Posted June 7, 2023 Author Share Posted June 7, 2023 Hello For 2021, if I understood correctly, all ISOs have the same content ? If I use the ODT or YAOCTRI to just keep Word and Excel, it doesn't matter if I use Office Home and Student or Pro Plus ? In the end, exactly the same thing will be installed (no additional components / files with the Pro Plus for example ) ?

NO it matters as all iso edition have different SKU and hence different license key like home and student, pro plus etc. a key for home and student cannot be used for pro plus and vice a versa even though you only use word and excel. 47 minutes ago, tistou77 said: In the end, exactly the same thing will be installed (no additional components / files with the Pro Plus for example ) ? yes Edited June 7, 2023 by kyber Matrix 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I know for the licenses, I'm just talking about the content of the ISO and what will be installed between these 2 versions (just installed Word and Excel) And you answered me that it will be exactly the same below Being able to have a Pro Plus license cheaper than a Home and Studend, I would take the Pro Plus if exactly the same thing is installed as with the H&S (no additional components) Thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
