- If the below guide is confusing to you then the simplest option for you is to use [Office C2R Installer](office_c2r_links.html).
- Retail Office (O365 with Mondo 2016 KMS License installed by Activation script):\
Pros - Latest feature updates\
Cons - On Office repair or Windows major feature updates, you will need to run activation script again.
- Volume Office (2021):\
Pros - You won't need to run activation script again on Office repair or Windows major feature updates.\
Cons - No latest feature updates
- Please note that in the official C2R office custom installation method, there is no ISO or any one-click solution available. Below is the simplest guide to installing the customized office.
- Uninstall the office with App and Features option in Windows settings.
- Run `OfficeScrubber.cmd` file from [Office Scrubber](https://github.com/abbodi1406/WHD/raw/master/scripts/OfficeScrubber_10.7z) by abbodi1406 and select `[R] Remove all Licenses` option. You can skip this step if Office was never installed on the system.
- If you want Retail Office then select `Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise` in the office suites section.
- If you want Volume Office then select `Office LTSC Professional Plus 2021 - Volume License` (Don't select SPLA version) in the office suites section.
- You can add Visio and Project apps if you need them. Don't select language which is [not available for Project/Visio](office_c2r_links.html) if you are installing these apps.
- Customize other things and leave them as default where you don't understand something.
- Once you go through all the options, click on the export button and it will download a file named `Configuration.xml`
- Copy the downloaded `Configuration.xml` file to the root of the C drive, i.e. `C:\Configuration.xml`
- Open the command prompt as admin and run the below commands
cd /d C:\
setup.exe /configure Configuration.xml
It will now download and install Office. You can activate it with your preferred method.
