    Thanks, there is bug. CopyHere wants probably example D:, @ScriptDir is D:\ in root.
    If you need it now, then use example D:, not ScriptDir in root, I'll fix it tomorrow.

    Hello!

    Is there a newer build of office 2019 proplus vl that is newer than 16.0.10339.20026 as of now? I did download the files using odt 2 weeks ago and just wanted to make sure there are no major updates.

    Sorry for the newbe Question.
    I'm Looking for a way to convert retail to volume. "Latest C2R-R2V (at this time, it's 6.7z)" mentioned few post before seems to do this. BUT where can I find DL links? The search function of the Forum tells me that the search string is either to short or to common….

    SOLVED
    I`m sorry. I did not check first Posting containing all the desired Information.

    N00b questions please.

    Where can I download a VL Version of MS Office 2019 ProPlus ? How about 2019 Visio Pro VL???

    All I saw in the OP here was Retail versions, but I may have overlooked something.

    Many Thx in advance!

    @Cain57
    There is no default VL setup available for office 2019.
    Although C2R setup of O2019 contains both Retail and VL channel and all the products (e.g. visio, O365 etc) , but by default its setup only allows you to use Retail channel with the mentioned product without any customization.
    By using some methods, you can directly install VL from a retail img/iso. Some versions ago Official ODT was allowing direct Vl install from Retail img but the latest version is not supporting that, now it first requires to download files with ODT.
    As an alternative to ODT, there is a method called Office Click-To-Run Installer
    With this, you can directly install office as VL from a Retail.img/iso, also you can customize install it.
    @abbodi1406 made a proper script for it named, YAOCTRI check this out, it's awesome.

    Thank you for the help!! Do you think there ever be a VL versions of Office 2019 that we can download and install off-line?

    Until that happens, I can use YAOCTRI and then use the Retail .IMG files I downloaded from here, and install Office 2019 as a VL version??

    Once again, our friend @abbodi1406 comes through to help people!

    You overlooked this line ;)
    - Office 2019 products are officially blocked on Windows 7 and 8.1
    to workaround that, follow these steps:


    if you want Office Professional Plus 2019:
    1) install O365ProPlusRetail SKU
    2) edit Convert-C2R.cmd and set _O365asO2019=1
    3) run Convert-C2R.cmd

    if you want Project 2019 and/or Visio 2019:
    1) install desired SKU: ProjectProRetail, ProjectStdRetail, VisioProRetail, VisioStdRetail
    2) run Convert-C2R.cmd

    No, there won't be any default VL setup for O2019.
    Yeah, YAOCTRI and O2019 img and you don't need any other tool. :)

    You are 100% correct, I totally missed that line.

    So abbodi's other script C2R-Retail2Volume is used AFTER the RETAIL program has been installed??

    YAOCTRI works for the installation itself and allows installation as a VL version and customizations?

    Thank you again! I'm grabbing YAOCTRI now, and I'm setting up a new VM to play with this stuff.

    OK, I tried these two Retail - VL scripts (on VMs), so for anyone like me who was wondering about them, here are my quick thoughts:
    1) C2R-Retail2Volume -- VERY Easy to use. Simply install the retail version of a MS Office Program normally, then after it is completely installed simply run this script and Boom -- now it is switched to Volume Licensing. Easy Peasy!
    2) YAOCTRI -- Use this script to install the retail version of a MS Office program as a VL program - it gets converted during the installation. It features more installation flexibility and customization of the installation, but not as simple to use as C2R-Retail2Volume.

    Both scripts are amazing and work well, they are different programs that achieve the same ultimate goal; Retail programs converted into Volume Licensing. (Thx for the help Windows Addict!)

    Sorry if this is not the right place to ask

    I have a question about DigitalProductID in the registry for Office 2019. Before O2019 this key was located in Ordinateur\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE \Microsoft\Office\16.0\Registration\{90160000-0011-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}

    It was possible to decode the DigitalProductID key (starting at position 808) to get the full Product Key.

    I just installed Office 2019, and I do not find this key in the registry at this location. Anybody knows where it has been moved? A search in the registry did not found any DigitalProductID key related to Office?

    Actually looks like the content/location of office keys in registry is quite different from previous version (for example no bitness /architecture information).
    Therefore my Activation Advisor program https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/kmspico-official-thread.65739/page-389#post-1460049 does not display the complete product key and correct architecture for Office 2019.

    It seems the office 2016 as well as Office 2019 use the same version : 16.0.
    Where can I find a description of registry keys for Office 2019?
