    Just a few brief questions: Do these activate successfully at the moment? Or do you need Office 365 account? Is there a successful Retail to Volume conversion and activation yet for these UWP Office apps?

    Thank you for your time. I actually quite like the Office UWP apps for the fact that they run within AppContainer sandboxes.

    @alanfox2000 Thank you for your tutorials and information. With your suggestion to use UWP-Package-Installer in install the individual appxbundles, I was able to successfully install what I needed. And with your detailed steps to use Office Tool Plus to remove previous licences, install new volume licences and activate, everything has been 100% successful in the end. I've got Office UWP apps running with activate volume licencing.

    I do have one question: Are these Office UWP apps always/only available as 32-bit?

    I had assumed that they would be 64-bit by default, but Process Explorer and Process Hacker show them running as 32-bit.

    Is there are method, during installation, to force installation of 64-bit only? My Windows 10 is 64-bit, but my resulting Office UWP install is 32-bit.

    I see also that you just posted x64 only appx from Insider Channel. This is good news for sure.
