Office Professional Plus 2019 Installation Guide Offline and Online keys.direct

Offline Office installation has many advantages over online installation. It removes the complication of logging in with a Microsoft account and validating your product key in advance prior to downloading Office in case of Office 2016 installation. It is also perfect for installing Office on multiple PCs as you can simply copy the installer on a USB flash drive and use it to install Office on different PCs without having to download Office repeatedly. It is ideal as well if you are having trouble downloading Office since you can opt to purchase the USB installer to easily install Office offline.

IMPORTANT

If you own previous releases of Microsoft Office below the 2016 version, it is of utmost importance that you remove them first before installing Office 2016 to prevent application errors. Microsoft Office is designed in a way that it only allows one installation and once license to exist in a single device. Pirated Office should also be thoroughly removed to ensure that the new installation can connect to Microsoft’s activation servers for activation.
