With Office 2019, Microsoft has changed the way Volume Licensing customers can download and install all Office suites and individual applications, including Visio and Project. Unlike previous editions of Office that were obtained through Volume Licensing, Office 2019 products can't be downloaded directly through the Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC).

Windows Download and Installation Instructions for Office 2019

Beginning with Office 2019, all Office products for Windows that are available through Volume Licensing use Click-to-Run technology instead of the traditional Windows Installer technology. To deploy volume licensed versions of Office 2019 products for users in your organization, you'll use the Office Deployment Tool (ODT).

You'll need a broadband Internet connection with download speeds of at least 20 Mbps to download Office 2019 products. Note that Office 2019 products requireWindows 10and will not run on older versions of Windows.

2. Select theDownloads and Keystab.
3. Find your Office 2019 product in the list and click itsKeylink.
4. In the table beneath the name of the product, find your product key in the column labeledKey. TheTypecolumn for this key should say MAK, not KMS.
   • Office suites have separate setup keys for online functionality like web apps. These keys are not the same as the MAK product keys and cannot be used for volume activation of desktop products.

Copy the product's individual key from this table and paste it into a program like Notepad or clickExport all keys: CSVjust above the list of products to download a list of keys in comma-separated-values format (which can be opened with Excel). This list contains all Volume License keys associated with agreements in your VLSC profile.

2. When the download is finished, open it, check the box to accept the Microsoft license terms, and clickContinue.
3. You will be asked to choose a folder to store the extracted setup files. Navigate to the root level of your computer's hard drive (C:) and clickMake New Folder. Then, name the folder 'OfficeSetup' and continue with the extraction process. Note that these instructions won't work if you choose a different folder name or location.
4. When you are finished, your new 'OfficeSetup' folder should have a file named 'setup' and some sample 'configuration' files. Delete the configuration files. You only need to keep the setup file.

Step Four: Download and Prepare the Configuration File

Download the configuration file that you need from the table below by right-clicking the link for the file you need, selectingSave link as…, and saving the file to the 'OfficeSetup' folder you created. Don't download more than one of these files to that folder at a time. If you need to install more than one type of Office product, you'll have the opportunity to do so later.

Next, follow the instructions below to add the product key that you obtained from the VLSC in step two to the configuration file.

1. Right-click the configuration file and selectEditto open the file in Notepad.
2. Look for the following string of text in the configuration file:
   • PIDKEY='#####-#####-#####-#####-#####'
3. In this string, replace #####-#####-#####-#####-##### with your MAK client activation key by copying and pasting the key from wherever you saved it. You should leave the quotation marks before and after the key.
4. Save the file and close it.
5. Then, right-click the configuration file, selectRename, and change the filename to be 'configuration'.
   • If the configuration file you downloaded has a name that ends with '.xml', that means your installation of Windows has been set to display file extensions. If this is the case, make sure to keep '.xml' in your filename by renaming it as 'configuration.xml' instead of 'configuration'.

If you need additional customization for your deployment and have IT experience, you can use Microsoft'sOffice Customization Toolto create your own configuration files.
