But we also know that some customers just feel that they can’t move to the cloud despite the widely embraced benefits.Įarlier today, we announced new capabilities that enable customers to unlock the value of Microsoft 365 even if they rely on shared workstations or devices that must be offline for months at a time. We’ve seen incredible cloud adoption across every industry, and we will continue to invest and innovate in the cloud as we partner with organizations everywhere to build the best solutions for the new world of work. Overwhelmingly, our customers are choosing the cloud to empower their people-from frontline workers on the shop floor, to on-the-go sales teams, to remote employees connecting from home.

I still used the config generator, but replaced the product ID with the relevant one for Word-only.įor anyone else having the same issue, the correct product ID here was 'Word2021Volume'.At Microsoft, we believe that the cloud will power the work of the future. So - is there another installation media for installing word with a word license (the word edition sold under part number 059-06305 from licensing vendors) - or is there a special ProductID needed for the XML that is not documented anywhere? I COULD of course activate using a key for a full office suite, but that is 3 times the cost, and the installation will be used by a backend server for some ERP printing application, so the licensing will be multipled with the active number of users in the ERP system, and that will add up fast. This would be fine, and I can get the installation to install only Word - but the issue is that my product key for WORD LTSC 2021 is not getting recognized as a valid key.

It seems the 'Office Customization Tool' located at will only create xml files for installation of any full office suite, and then let me deselect the product I don't need. I am currently trying to install Word LTSC 2021, using a SPLA key.
