How To Download Microsoft Office 2019
How To Use Office 2019 On Windows 7 32-bit

-->

To configure and perform deployments of volume licensed versions of Office 2019, including Project and Visio, for users in your organization, you use the Office Deployment Tool (ODT). The Office Customization Tool (OCT) that you previously used for Windows Installer (MSI) is no longer used.

From the Office home page select Install Office. Select Install (or depending on your version, Install Office). You signed in with a work or school account From the home page select Install Office (If you set a different start page, go to aka.ms/office-install.). According to the source, the New Microsoft Office 2019 will only be supported on Windows 10. No compatibility factor is present for Windows 7 or Windows 8.1. These two older operating systems have to be contented with Office 2016. Office 365 is supported on Windows 7 SP 1 then, why Office 2019 isn't supported on Windows 7 SP 1? Office 365 has all the features of office 2019 and more. The price you mentioned ($249.99) is for Office 2019 Home & student or Home & Business?

The installation files for Office 2019 are available on the Office Content Delivery Network (CDN) on the internet instead of on the Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC). You can install Office 2019 directly from the Office CDN. Or, you can download the installation files from the Office CDN to a location on your local network, such as a shared folder, and install Office 2019 from that location. You can use different methods for different sets of computers in your organization. Whichever method you choose, you use the ODT.

Installing directly from the Office CDN requires the least amount of administrative effort and is recommended. But you might have constraints that prevent you from installing directly from the internet. For example, some computers might not have connectivity to the internet or you may have limited bandwidth to the internet.

Download the Office Deployment Tool from the Microsoft Download Center

The Office Deployment Tool is a free download from the Microsoft Download Center. We recommend that you always download and use the most current version of the ODT.

After you download the Office Deployment Tool, double-click on the officedeploymenttool executable (.exe) file to extract the ODT files. When you are finished, you should have several files: setup.exe and some sample configuration.xml files. For an Office 2019-specific sample, see Sample configuration.xml file to use with the Office Deployment Tool.

The setup.exe file is the ODT and is a command-line tool that supports downloading and installing Office 2019. The configuration.xml files are sample files to get you started. You use the configuration.xml file to provide settings for the ODT to use when downloading or installing Office 2019. The configuration.xml is a simple xml file that can be created and edited in any text editor, such as Notepad. You can name the file anything that you want, as long as it retains the xml file extension.

Create the configuration.xml

Once you have a copy of the ODT, you need to create a configuration.xml file. You can create multiple configuration.xml files to be used with the ODT. For example, you would create a configuration.xml file to download and install the 64-bit version of Office Professional Plus 2019 in English and a different configuration.xml file to install the 32-bit version of Visio Professional 2019 in French. When you run the ODT from an elevated command prompt, you specify which configuration.xml file to use.

Tip

Instead of using a text editor to create your configuration.xml, we recommend that you use the Office Customization Tool (OCT). The OCT provides a web-based interface for making your selections and creating your configuration.xml file to be used with the Office Deployment Tool. For more information, see Overview of the Office Customization Tool. Please note that this is different than the Office Customization Tool that you might have used in the past to install volume licensed versions of Office that used Windows Installer (MSI) as the installation technology.

There are a series of settings in the configuration.xml file that you configure to customize the Office 2019 download or installation. The following table lists the most common settings to configure in the configuration.xml file.

Configuration	configuration.xml setting	Additional information
Where to download the Office installation files to and where to install Office from For example, servershare (a shared folder on your local network)	SourcePath	If you don’t specify a SourcePath when using the ODT to install Office, the ODT looks for the installation files in the folder it’s located in. If it doesn’t find the Office installation files there, it goes to the Office CDN to get the installation files. We recommend that you install Office directly from the Office CDN, if internet connectivity and network bandwidth make that possible.
Which products to download or install For example, Office Professional Plus 2019	Product ID	Valid values for volume licensed versions of Office 2019 include the following: - ProPlus2019Volume - Standard2019Volume - ProjectPro2019Volume - ProjectStd2019Volume - VisioPro2019Volume - VisioStd2019Volume For a list of Product IDs for other volume licensed versions of Office 2019, such as Access 2019, see Product IDs that are supported by the Office Deployment Tool for Click-to-Run.
Use Key Management Service (KMS) to activate Office 2019	PIDKEY	Enter the Generic Volume License Key (GVLK) for KMS activation.
Use Multiple Activation (MAK) to activate Office 2019	PIDKEY	Enter the product key for MAK activation.
Which languages to download or install For example, English (en-us) and French (fr-fr).	Language ID	You can install multiple languages at the same time you’re Installing Office 2019, or you can install them later. For more information, see Deploy languages for Office 2019.
Which proofing tools to install	Product ID	The Product ID is 'ProofingTools' and is used in combination with the Language ID. For more information, see Deploy languages for Office 2019.
Which edition of Office 2019 to download or install. For example, the 64-bit version.	OfficeClientEdition	Valid xml values are '32' and '64.' All Office products on the computer must be of the same architecture. You can’t have both 32-bit and 64-bit Office products installed on the same computer. We recommend 64-bit on computers that have 4 gb or more of memory. But you should assess application compatibility and other factors that might require you to use the 32-bit version. For more information, see Choose between the 64-bit or 32-bit version of Office.
Which apps to install For example, all apps except Publisher.	ExcludeApp	By default, all apps included in Office Professional Plus 2019 are installed. For example, to not install Publisher, you can include the following line in your configuration.xml: <ExcludeApp /> For more information, see ExcludeApp element.
Where to get security and quality updates from. For example, directly from the Office CDN on the internet.	UpdatePath	The default is to get updates directly from the Office CDN on the internet. This is recommended and requires the least amount of administrative effort. But if you need to update computers that don’t have connectivity to the internet, you can specify that Office gets updates, for example, from a shared folder on your local network. But this means that you must download the updates from the Office CDN and copy them to the shared folder. For more information, see Update Office 2019 (for IT Pros).
Which update channel to install from and get updates from	Channel	Office uses the concept of update channels to determine which updates an installed version of Office receives. For more information, see Update channel for Office 2019.
Whether to remove previous Windows Installer (MSI) versions of Office before installing Office 2019	RemoveMSI	This is recommended. For more information, see Remove existing versions of Office before installing Office 2019.
