      Yeah i remember having issues running "Out of the Box" with Retail, also Office365. But the links from @dbeato is what i've used in the past.

      (until i needed to use Visio with the latest 365, gave up and added Visio to my 365 subscription)

        The biggest question is why Microsoft has apparently gone down the same road as Intuit and started the whole "You now own this product, but aren't able to actually use it" thing.

          That answer is simple, "why not if people still buy it?" People still buy it, so seems like they made the right decision to me.

            And more importantly, any company still buying it shows by their actions that they completely agree that the product is still what they want. So they are telling Microsoft "good job on that decision" with every purchase.

              Yeah, this particular client has way more issues than just this, sadly.

                  I typically run the Office removal tool on all new computers. Seems to clear out all the included installs.

                    I also used the ODT as below

                    Download
                    setup.exe /download configuration.xml

                    Install
                    setup.exe /configure configuration.xml

                    Just to confirm, that did work. Have a cookie on me.

                      That's my preferred way of installing office.
