    Possible reason to not get updates
    Install different install type from source type
    I recommend install same type install from same type source
    2016 volume from current channel
    2019 ltsc from 2019 ltsc source
    Same to 2021 ltsc ..

    Strange what is happening to you, I recently solved a rather strange problem with Microsoft's uninstall tool. If you get a chance, plug in another disk and try installing Office on it.

    I've tested like this... (setup.exe /configure configuration.xml)

    Code:
    <Configuration>
      <Add OfficeClientEdition="64" Channel="Current">
        <Product ID="ProPlus2021Retail">
          <Language ID="es-mx" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="Access" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="Lync" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="OneDrive" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="OneNote" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="Outlook" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="Teams" />
        </Product>
      </Add>
      <Property Name="FORCEAPPSHUTDOWN" Value="TRUE" />
      <Property Name="AUTOACTIVATE" Value="1" />
      <Updates Enabled="TRUE" />
      <RemoveMSI />
      <Display Level="Full" AcceptEULA="TRUE" />
    </Configuration>
    and the Setup.exe (in ProPlus2021Retail.img) is still ignoring the configuration file, and keeps installing: Access, Outlook and OneNote, which are supposed to be excluded with that configuration file.

    I see, thank you, now I've tested with ODT + ProPlus2021Retail.img and worked, Office 2021 Retail installed successfully offline and with the specific apps ;)

    but, what about perpetual VL? there is no way to install it offline using the ProPlus2021Retail.img + ODT ?
