    I have a batch file for installing office '19 to '24 version for years now.
    In the last 3 or 4 versions of C2R setup file when running the batch file as always, the setup gives the "Couldn't fine the configuration file" error.
    When running the batch file as admin it doesn't do anything also (quicly exits cmd). So the only way to install it, is to open CMD as admin,
    go to the directory and give the batch's file command. Is there anything else i can do to bypass all this?

    What the batch run exactly?

    you can use this script, place next to ODT setup.exe and configuration.xml
    Code:
    @echo off
    pushd "%~dp0"
    setup.exe /configure configuration.xml

    Tested these settings.
    It turns out that it is sufficient to modify only the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\ClickToRun\Configuration\InstallationPath value before running the installation, and after that most of Office files are installed to the manually specified path.

    But I encountered one problem with this method - the installer seems to ramdomly store incorrect paths under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\ClickToRun\REGISTRY\MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components subkey - some paths are updated to the manually specified value and other still point to the default "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office" directory.
    After manually fixing these paths in registry, Office applications run successfully from the custom path.
    (Also, Office updates break the paths again, so they need to be fixed again after each update.)

    That does not work with Office C2R
    setup64 / setup32 are hardcoded to install specific lang/sku

    you need to use Office deployment tool, or 3rd party tools

    Download separate files, then you can create a image. One tool.

    How can I install Office Mondo 2016 VL and activate it with a private internal lan KMS server without triggering the "GET GENUINE OFFICE"?
    I've tried installing with both Office Tools Plus and YAOCTR, but it seems I need to choose a VL but it seems that does not exist for Office Mondo right?
    My private kms server is picked up automatically from DNS records, do I also need to explicitly set it up in the registry key?
