✅ What You Need

Uninstall Previous Versions

Steps:

1. Open “Control Panel”
2. Go to “Programs and Features”
3. Right-click on any existing Microsoft Office version and select “Uninstall”
4. Restart your PC after completion

Note: The process may take several minutes, depending on your computer’s configuration.

How to Install Microsoft Office LTSC 2024 Standard

Step 1: Download the Office Deployment Tool (ODT)

1. Visit the ODT download page
2. Click Download.
3. Create a new folder in your C: drive called Office2024Setup (e.g., C:\Office2024Setup).
4. Then, run the downloaded file and select that folder as the destination when asked where to extract the files.

✅ You should see: setup.exe and sample XML files
❌ You may not see an EULA.txt file — that’s normal.

Step 2: Create a Configuration File

1. Open Notepad
2. Paste the configuration below (replace with your key):

<Configuration>
  <Add OfficeClientEdition="64" Channel="PerpetualVL2024">
    <Product ID="Standard2024Volume" PIDKEY="XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX">
      <Language ID="en-us" />
    </Product>
  </Add>
  <RemoveMSI />
  <Display Level="None" AcceptEULA="TRUE" />
  <Property Name="AUTOACTIVATE" Value="1" />
</Configuration>

• Save as: configuration.xml
• Save as type: All Files | Encoding: UTF-8

Step 3: Run the Installer

1. Open Command Prompt as Administrator
2. In the Command Prompt window, run the command below to go to the folder where you saved the setup files
   

   cd C:\Office2024Setup

   ⚠️ Note: If you saved the setup files in a different folder (e.g., Downloads or Desktop), replace the path accordingly.
3. Still in the Command Prompt, start the installer by typing this command:
   

   setup.exe /configure configuration.xml

   ⚠️ Note: This command must be run inside Command Prompt and only works when you're in the correct folder where both setup.exe and configuration.xml are located.

⚠️ Note: You won’t see a typical installer window. It may look like nothing is happening — but Office is downloading and installing silently in the background.

✅ Installation is complete when:

• The command prompt returns to a blinking cursor
• Office apps appear in the Start Menu
• You can launch Word, Excel, etc.

Step 4: Activate by Telephone

1. Launch any Office app
2. Follow the activation wizard
3. Choose “I want to activate the software by telephone”
4. Call the number shown and follow the voice prompts
5. Enter the Confirmation ID provided

✅ Activation is complete — no Microsoft account required.
