    I just discovered that Office 2016 Volume can also be installed through C2R, <Product ID="ProPlusVolume">
    But I'm confused about its Update Channel. It seems to be installed on any Channel. Here are screenshots of it running on Office 2019 Perpetual Enterprise and Current Channel:
    <Add Channel="PerpetualVL2019">:

    <Add Channel="Current">:

    But does anyone know which Channel it was originally supposed to run on?
    There is no Channel named Office 2016 Perpetual Enterprise
    There is no ID of <Add Channel="PerpetualVL2016"> (seems to be limited to visio and Project)

    It's not supported by ODT, hence they didn't care to block it per channel

    Project/Visio Volume (all versions) are supported on all channels

    Thank you, I’ll try it later.
    What does not support bu ODT mean?
    I originally thought that Office 2016 Volume could not be deployed using ODT, but I found that it could be installed by changing the product ID to <Product ID="ProPlusVolume">.
    If channels are supported without restrictions, wouldn't it mean that by changing the channels to PerpetualVL2024 or PerpetualVL2027 in the future, we can get unlimited access to the latest updates?

    not update are locked by build

    eg : for windows 7 office 365 build 2002

    unofficial to have update past january 2023 , download office 2019 ltsc ( but install by choosing office 365 or mondo)

    because ltsc 2019 are locked to build 1808
