    Will MS release a VL version of Office 2019??? As I understand it now we install the retail version, then convert it into VL.

    Update 8/31 -- Answer to myself and others wanting an answer to this question: Download, and learn how to use -- YAOCTRU and YAOCTRI

    The readme's are a little confusing, but once you start doing it, then it becomes obvious. these two scripts are amazing.

    I made a nice little folder with VL files on a USB, and it makes for an easy-peasy VL installation.

    You can install it as VL from beginning.

    Indeed, seems that MSFT will not release a VL version of Office 2019. Who cares, as the tools on first page do "install and convert to VL" automatically (WOTOK, YAOCTRI and OfficeRTool).
    P.S. I have only tested YAOCTRI.

    OfficeRtool has this option,
    Or you can use abbodi1406 Retail2Volume on anything you have installed,
    Or use Perpetual2019VL channel when installing via ODT to activate as VL without need to convert(I think YAOCTRI can do this for you)

    Yes, YAOCTRI will install as VL, YAOCTRIR will install as retail.

    Yes
    how it didn't work?

    to get working updates, YAOCTRI actually install Office 2016 ProPlus SKU + Office 2019 ProPlus licenses

    Can any member advise the method of downloading Office ProPlus 2019 VL for burning onto DVD for future re-installation if required? Thanks for the help!

    I used Office Deployment Tool downloaded right from MS, then uncompressed and execute a CMD with setup.exe /configure configuration-Office2019Enterprise.xml * , then it will isntall the true VL version downloaded directly from MS servers. After install activate with Kms vl all and it's ready!
    Note: The VL version officially is only the PerpetualVL2019 channel, with is 1808 version, and it not have the new icons, but it's very stable. It matches well with Windows 10 LTSC
    * this install in English and x64, if you want another language and/or bitness, edit the "en-us" for example "es-es" for Spanish and the 64 for 32

    Is there a one-click "force remove office" or "complete clean office" script now?

    What is confusing about these sentences in the 1st post?
    2.) Retail: needed/required CONVERSION / KMS preparation:
    Office 2019 Retail to Volume conversion tool 'C2R-R2V' by @abbodi1406 -> https://forums.mydigitallife.net/posts/1150042.
    or
    OfficeRTool.

    Have you tried any of these two alternatives?
