# Office C2R Custom Install
## Notes
- If you find the guide below confusing, the simplest option is to use the [Office C2R Installer](office_c2r_links.md).
- Retail Office (e.g., O365) receives the latest feature updates, whereas Volume Office (e.g., ProPlus 2024) does not.
- Please note that the official C2R custom installation method does not use an ISO or a one-click solution. Below is the simplest guide for a customized Office installation.
:::tip
- **Users from sanctioned countries** need to follow [this guide](bypass_microsoft_geoblocking.md) to bypass geoblocking when downloading Office.

## Custom Installation Guide
### 1. Using Office Deployment Tool ❤️
- If Office has been installed previously:
- Uninstall Office via **Apps and Features** in Windows Settings.
- Run the `OfficeScrubber.cmd` file from [Office Scrubber](https://gitlab.com/-/project/11037551/uploads/f49f0d69e0aaf92e740a1f694d0438b9/OfficeScrubber_14.zip) by abbodi1406 and select the `[R] Remove all Licenses` option.
- Create a new folder named `Office` on your `C:` drive (e.g., `C:\Office`).
- Download the [Office Deployment Tool](https://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/wsus/setup.exe) (ODT).
- Copy the downloaded `setup.exe` to the Office folder you create (e.g., `C:\Office\setup.exe`).
- Go to [config.office.com](https://config.office.com/deploymentsettings).
- If you want Retail Office, select `Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise` in the Office Suites section.
- If you want Volume Office, select `Office LTSC Professional Plus 2024 - Volume License` in the Office Suites section. (Do not select the SPLA version).
- You can add Visio and Project apps if needed, but ensure that a supported language is selected for [Project](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/projectonline/supported-languages-for-project-online) / [Visio](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/display-languages-supported-in-the-visio-desktop-app-a921983e-fd5d-45ef-8af1-cedf70c53d75).
- If you plan to download Office files to install later, ensure you select a specific version number rather than "Latest" in the `Select the version` option.
- You only need to configure options up to the "Language" section. You can leave the rest as default.
- Click the **Export** button, select the "Keep Current Settings" option, and it will download a file named `Configuration.xml`. (If the name is different, rename it to `Configuration.xml`).
- Copy the downloaded `Configuration.xml` file to the Office folder you created (e.g., `C:\Office\Configuration.xml`).
import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs';
import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem';
<Tabs>
<TabItem value="direct_install" label="Direct Install" default>
- Open **Command Prompt** (not PowerShell) **as Administrator** and run the following commands:
```
cd /d C:\Office\
setup.exe /configure Configuration.xml
```
It will now install Office.
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="download_and_install" label="Download and then install" default>
- Ensure you selected a specific version number in the configuration as per the steps above.
- Open **Command Prompt** (not PowerShell) **as Administrator** and run the following commands:
- Download Office files:
```
cd /d C:\Office\
setup.exe /download Configuration.xml
```
- Install Office from the downloaded files (can be done offline):
```
cd /d C:\Office\
setup.exe /configure Configuration.xml
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
:::warning[Common errors]
- Make sure you are entering these commands in Command Prompt (CMD) as Administrator.
- File name extensions are hidden by default in Windows. Consequently, some users might incorrectly rename `Configuration.xml` to `Configuration.xml.xml` because the original `.xml` extension was not visible.
