I can't install Microsoft Office 2021 using YAOCTRI. According to the message below, it looks like Office has been successfully installed but it is not. Nothing is installed after running the tool. Code: ============================================================== Preparing... ============================================================== ============================================================== Running installation... ============================================================== ============================================================== Done. ============================================================== Press any key to exit. The time from when the "Running installation..." line appears until the "Done." line appears, it only takes a few seconds. If I use Office Deployment Tool, Microsoft Office always installs successfully, Office Deployment Tool doesn't complain any problem. Office installation files are downloaded using YAOCTRU. I haven't been able to install Office using YAOCTRI since about last year. Before that I had no problem running the tool.
Maybe I found the cause of the problem. If the folder name contains non-ASCII characters, YAOCTRI will fail to install the Office. Renaming the folder containing the Office installation files to random phrases from languages using non-Latin script such as Greek, Russian, Arabic, Chinese, etc. will result in YAOCTRI inability to install the Office correctly. Office Deployment Tool has no problem with folder names, I can install Office using it without having to rename the folder.
got an error trying to install en-GB_Office_PerpetualVL2021_x64_v16.0.14332.20176 "No compatible office product were detected".
hello @abbodi1406 could it be possible to be more accurate with the folder's name in your script YAOCTRU please ? at the moment folder created looks like "C2R_xxx" where xxx represent the channel name, for example: C2R_Monthly could it be possible to change like this for example: C2R_16.0.11231.20174_x86x64_en-US_Monthly using the same scheme name but without the OutputType value ? or let us the possibility to set custom output folder name using scheme values: Version_Bitness_Lang_SourceType_Channel ? thx in advance
@b0unty The idea is that you could download multiple versions from the same channel into the same output folder you could change this line as example in the created download script Code: set "destDir=C2R_Monthly" to Code: set "destDir=%~n0" and the folder will take the same script name however, this only work with aria and wget scripts i will try to add an option for custom output folder
Anyone know if there's other activation tool for Windows 10 Pro/Enterprise that is as intuitive as OfficeRTool? I find that OfficeRTool is super intuitive to use and very effective in getting activation done.
Hi, I cannot seem to be able to get new data types like geography in excel. They're greyed out. I installed Office 365 Enterprise, Office 2021 but nothing worked. Any ideas? Thanks. Is it because of VL license? Edit: never mind. Did a full scrub and it's working now.
Hello @ALL! I just have a NOOB step-by-step question. I read several threads and topics but got more and more confused. To have an installation of O365 including all (coming) necessary and feature updates I have to download Office365ProPlus - using YAOCTRU? Afterwards installation via YAOCTRI and then activation via KMS_VL_ALL? KMS_VL_ALL changes this installation to MONDO-license (right?) and that's it? Is this the right way to be up to date with all features in opposition to O2021-LTSC? What about the "visual refresh" reg-file? Do I have to download and apply this too? (PS: I am on Windows 11) THANK YOU for your help!
Yes. Download current channel files with YAOCTRU Install O365 with monthly update channel with YAOCTRI Activate with KMS_VL_ALL That way, you get the most features. You don't need a visual refresh tweak. It will come by default. If not appearing then let Office apps close-open a couple of times and you will get it.
I’m wondering the same, what the best way to install & activate office is … I’d like to use KMS activation, I already have my own little activation script that I use, and I also would like to install additional spell checkers … When I used YAOCTRI to install from ProPlus retail it worked fine, but I could never install additional spell checkers afterwards. So now I switched to YAOCTRU and downloaded ProPlus VL including spell checkers. I also tried getting the 365 edition and then doing KMS but it was showing up as Office 2016. Is there a way to be on the Current channel with VL and not use anything weird such as Mondo keys?
