Because of 32bit is sufficient enough for normal use, 64bit is only intended for when you have to manage huge databases and possible incompatibility with older 32bit third party add-ons. MSFT, probably, is going to change this with the next office release.
I´m not familiar with Office 365 but maybe someone else like to chime in, what is your language you have problems with? Send me a PM if you don´t like to tell in public
Is the 2016VLK now gone when you check it with Check-Activation-Status.cmd or try to activate with the other scripts?
no, it's still there hmm I have not installed any more office 2016, but before that I had a MAK key where I had Office 2016 installed, maybe it depends I uninstall now again, if something goes wrong I have a backup
Agreed - why not just do that? Also, you did NOT need to uninstall any version of 2016 - I actually upgraded from 2016 ProPlus VL (2019 retail replaced 2016 VL); I used the included retail2VL crossgrade tool post-install (that is how I kept the Colorful theme scheme from 2016 VL)

Un-necessary if you have 2016 VL - 2019 will replace 2016 of the same bitness (in my case, 2019 retail replaced 2016 VL - both x64.) What I did was use the included conversion tool to replace retail with VLAE - then used the included KMS to handle the licensing issues (according to the KMS tool itself, Office ProPlus post-conversion is Volume/Academic/Education - that Academic/Education is KMS-licensable is new; AE used to use a different license scheme.) I'm merely curious (because it saves a great deal of woe) - why the change for AE? Performance changes - Both Word and Outlook are slightly quicker than their 2016 VL counterparts (this is VL vs. VL); not knocking that one bit, as I switched to x64 for precisely this reason once a full x64 version of Office became available. Word is STILL faster at PDF conversion (even compared to Acrobat DC - which added PDF conversion in replacing Reader) - the one area where Acrobat DC shines is PDF documents sourced outside of Word (I have very few of those).
Thanks, @palikuca then a manual way to remove it could be: 1) run cscript slmgr.vbs /dlv all > C:\slmgr-output.txt 2) open slmgr-output.txt and search for the offending Office16ProPlusVL_KMS_Client edition lic that is active and take note of the Activation ID. 3) run slmgr /upk <Activation ID>
ok I have removed office with the tool, now I have a check made. There are still 2 activations there. 1x I used C2R-R2V_4 1x I used KMS_VL_ALL-SppExtComObjPatcher-kms-25 ( Check-Activation-Status-Alternative.cmd ) how do i get these 2 activations removed so i can re-activate. he does not find anything C2R-R2V_4 but according to KMS_VL_ALL-SppExtComObjPatcher-kms-25 There are still 2 activations active
For the Office16ProPlusVL_KMS_Client check my post above to find it's Activation Id. The Office19ProPlus2019VL_KMS_Client_AE you can remove with: Code: slmgr /upk 85dd8b5f-eaa4-4af3-a628-cce9e77c9a03 But check against the .txt that this ID is correct for you system. Unfortunately C2R-R2V won't help you to remove these old VL licenses, sorry for my previous recommendation.
