Thanks. I already have an older Office 2016 build (and using KMSpico). Do I need to uninstall KMSPico and Office or only KMSPico and upgrade directly?
I don't know why the internal Office-Update didn't detected the newest MS-VNEXT version. Then I uninstalled it and used O2016RTool to get it. Everything seems to work well.
RTOOL In The Field I downloaded the current RTOOL to my DevBook (HP Pavilion dv4 notebook) which had the last pre-RTM build of 2016 installed so I can do a download/replace of that version of 2016. I'm doing a completely offline install, which means I'll be testing the whole tool this time - on my desktop, I tested only the activation side of the tool. The download side is doing its thing right now. While the default is en-US, if you already know the version you want, you CAN plug it in when it asked (via the prompt) - since I'm in the US, I stuck to the default. I'm merely hoping that it lets me skip Skype for Business. FOLLOWUP - I chose a different SKU (Mondo, which is apparently an actual product SKU, and is also available in a VL sort) and it also (surprise, surprise) includes Skype for Business (rats) - apparently, unless you want an explicit pick-and-choose for a VL-licensed suite, if you choose any of the default VL-enabled SKUs, you're stuck with S4B (which is, in fact, the ONLY quibble I have with the current suite-based installation options). Still, what ARE the differences between ProPlus VL and Mondo VL?
I know this is a dumb question, but I could not find the answer anywhere. What is the difference between Vnext office and Web-office? By the way, I know you said not to thank in a post, but since I am posting anyway thank you so much for this easy-to-use tool.
Web-Office: Online-install. You locally have a small setup.exe and the needed install files are fetched online during install process. VNext-Office: Offline-install. You have the complete install package and setup.exe local on harddisk. Office is installed as Click2Run-Version in both ways, so there is no difference. VNext-Office is better if you want a install package for setup on a system without internet access.
Oh okay, I see, so it was that simple. Sorry for the bother but I have a few more questions. When I went with the web-office I ended up with 16.0.6001.1034 and I was wondering why didn't I get 16.0.6228.1007? Is it because when it is fetched the files online it automatically just gives me the retail build? Clicked update and it said that office was up-to-date. And I see that people want to revert from volume back to retail. I was wondering why anyone would want to do that? Should I ever consider it for whatever reason or should I just stick with volume? Cause volume is working just fine for me.
Quick question why not make a unified architecture script that grabs the architecture of the OS automatically for Retail2VL.cmd? That way you could have 1 script that works on 32 and 64 bit. I am somewhat perplexed on this. Additionally you guys would need to run a check to see if Office 32 bit is installed on a 64 bit system. All of this should be very easy to do. Code: if "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "AMD64" (Set %Arc% = "Program Files") else (Set %Arc% = "Program Files (x86)") Ya get the idea. You could also do path testing shrugs.
I have a trouble in installation. I removed my Office 2013 with Microsoft fixit. with O2016rtool i downloaded the offline install vxnet. Directory 16.0.6228.1004_en-US_x86_x64 is 2.4 Gb Now I'm doing for installation, office 2016 Professional Plus. Office starts but immediately I get: We're sorry, we can't continue because we weren't able to download a required file. Please make sure you're connected to the internet or connect to a different network. Then try again. Error code: 30182-1015 (3) I have looked into the forum. Only one user reported this issue, but no clear fix is described. The issue happens with both 32 and 64 bit. My PC is Windows 10 64bit.
I mean you could also script this with powershell. I really do not get why the entire forum has a hesitance to use it. If I converted the scripting to powershell would you guys put it up top?
