    what’s the difference between O365ProPlusRetail and the regular office 2019 or office 2016 versions?

    I just realised this, thank you for pointing it out.

    During the installation of Office 2019, it didn't ask me where to install, and defaulted to the x86 folder.
    Does this mean I can't use these tools at all?

    I have the original office 2019 pro plus iso (retail). Ofcourse there are already new versions. Is it possible to download the most recent files using YAOCTRU and replace the original files on the iso (leaving setup.exe untouched). Will it just install?

    @gerardv514

    Office 365 = subscription and retail only = get all features

    Office 2016 and 2019 are volume or retail = get few features

    as for installation files difference, nothing
    only the setup32.exe & setup64.exe is different between img files (of the same version)

    ---

    @platonic wisdom

    Office C2R does not allow to choose installation path

    ---

    @l2p2c2

    Yes

    but it's best if you also download the newest setup .exe files

    Thank you for getting back to me.
    I think you misunderstood what I was asking, I don't want C2R to choose installation path. I am concerned because the installation path for microsoft office includes brackets, (x86), so either this tool doesn't work for office 2019, or something isn't correct.

    Why do you put the tool in that path in the first? any other normal user path will be better

    C:\Program Files (x86) is system path for x86 programs on Windows x64

    Wotok installs retail or volume. If you want volume, install volume. You do not need to use C2R-R2V then, because volume will already be installed. If you want office activation, you don't need to use KMS_VL_ALL, Wotok can also KMS activation (installs SppExtComObjHook.dll).

    Hello to everyone :) My first message here and i want to thank this forum for giving me a lot of goodies for freeeee :)))))
    My story starts with Windows 7 Daz loader activated both on my PC and Laptop so i upgraded them both to Windows 10 Pro with yours internal methods ,and works perfectly fine :))))

    But still on my PC i am back to Windows 7 because of work ,but on my Laptop i have Windows 10 for learning curve ,cause i kinda like Windows 10 after all because of some specific features but that is not the point right now....
    .
    Well i have a questions about OfficeRTools.
    Is safe to use this tool to activate a Office Pro plus with Genuine Windows 10 Pro?
    I am trying for days to find this answer and i cant ,no chances ....
    I have used OfficerTools on my PC Win 7, Daz activated for Office Pro 2016 activation and it works like charm,but.....

    My question is here....

    Just to be clear , so you can eventualy give me a short and simple answer.
    Is it "legal" to use OfficeRtool for KMS activation of Office Pro Plus 2019 on genuine Windows 10 (my Laptop) and is there any chance that MS can get me caught for using this patch so i can get in trouble with my rest MS Windows licences on my MS Account for both PC and Laptop, because both of them are linked to my MS Account ?
    What is the risk , or i should buy a cheap ebay licence for Office , but tbh, to me ,that is more suspicious than everything....

    I hope my question and your answer help and other users who have same dilema...

    Thanks in advance for helping me :)

    Best regards :)

    You might want to try abbodi1406 YAOCTRI & YAOCTRU which makes installing and activating Office 2019 easy and almost fool proof, IMHO.


    Hope this helps....

    Many thanks for the reply, but that words in your sentence "almost fool proof" scares me, so i could lose that legit licence on my MS account, which as we all know they are HWID activated.
    Therefore i doubt that can be retrieved later again with "Windows 7 free upgrade" on the same maschine, because i believe it could be blacklisted HWID or something...
    I dont know how that works ,but just in case ,I will not play that game.For sure i can live without Office and stay safe as long as i can.
    I am thankful enough with Windows upgrade for free, and that is not a small thing...
    I will keep using it on Win 7 on my PC, but once i install Win 10 again on it, i will skip that kind of activation.

    Thanks guys, this place is lifesaver :)

    Best regards to all of you :)
