    Is there any way to make Office 2021 LTSC get updates from WSUS?

    Hi all, just downloaded ProPlus2021Retail.img for Office 2021 from Tb Adguard, installed and activated it with KMS_vs_ALL without a problem. However it turned out to be the LTSC version.

    Is there a way to convert this to normal 2021 version? I used Office scrub and installed a new version using YAOCTRI but it too installed LTSC version again.

    Either you buy retail key from ebay
    Or activate using any tool (and conversation is needed !)
    You can't install office 2021 retail and using vl activation.
    Its not work like that.

    How does activation with the tool remove the LTSC name?

    What do you mean by that?
    I can install Office 2021 Retail with the current channel and then install the VL license (with LTSC name) and still get current channel features.

    Wrongly explain my words, will try again
    I mean can't using volume activation on retail product
    You must convert license to volume to activate with such tools
    So you end up with ltsc logo :D

    KMS_VL_ALL does that all.

    Thanks for the answer. I read about LTSC version doesn't have all the new features compared to normal (retail?) one and got confused about why I'm getting LTSC one while install img says retail in its name. I guess I'm just gonna continue using it.

    Quick question: is there any way to disable/not allow to start with windows the Office c2r services that need to be constantly running in the background? Or are we stuck to Office 2016 in that regard?

    I dont know if its just me, but i find it infuriating that i have to allow a service to run 24/7 on my system in order to be able to use an app/program maybe twice a month...

    It's only one service ClickToRunSvc
    i think Office apps won't run without it

    Your probably right, I myself could only find the one service. Still bugs me, though, so I set it to manual start using services.msc and office runs fine. The service starts alongside it, but at least it's not starting with windows. Thank you for your reply.

    Il'l start looking into disabling Office elemetry.

    I dunno where did I download this from YAOCTRI_v15b because I see on your Github page the latest version is like v10 but anyway, is there a version that supports Office 2021 yet? I tried running YAOCTRI_v15b but it still only gives the options of Office 2019
