Hi @vinod sharma,  

Good day! Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A forum and sharing the details of your issue.  

Regarding the installation of Office 2024 Professional Plus, I understand you already have a product key but are unable to complete the setup. This version is part of the Office LTSC Professional Plus 2024 (Volume License) suite, and installation requires using the Office Deployment Tool (ODT).  

  • Firstly, you need to download the Office Deployment Tool (ODT), you can obtain it directly from Microsoft’s Download Center. Kindly refer Microsoft official document: Download Office Deployment Tool from Official Microsoft Download Center 
  • After that, create a configuration file: save the following as configuration.xml in the same folder as setup.exe. Replace the sample key with your own:
 
	 
		 
			 
		 
	 
 
 
 
  • Note: For the PIDKEY, replace #####-#####-#####-#####-##### with your MAK client activation key. 
  • Then please open Command Prompt as Administrator, navigate to the ODT folder, and run: 
    setup.exe /download configuration.xml 
    setup.exe /configure configuration.xml  

Once complete, launch any Office application (like Word or Outlook) to confirm activation with your key. To ensure you have detail information about this, please refer this article: Deploy Office LTSC 2024 - Office | Microsoft Learn.

If you encounter any further issues or error message, please keep me inform I will assist you further.

r/SCCM on Reddit: Deployment to remove Office 2021 and install 2024
September 23, 2025 -

I am interested in any pointers or assistance on how to make a deployment that would remove Office 2021 and install\replace with Office 2024 LTSC (volume license). I have created my application for Office 2024 in SCCM using the Office 365 Installer that creates both the package as well as the XML file. Is there a method to update the XML file for the Office 2024 deployment that would also remove Office 2021?

Volume license products require deployment rather than a standard installation. See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/ltsc/2024/deploy .

Has anyone installed Office 2024 successfully?

I've got the deployment tool, created the XML config file via Microsoft like I did with 2021. Then when I run the command setup.exe /configure configuration.xml on a freshly built windows device I get the message "This product can't be installed on the selected update channel"

I've googled it but none of the suggestions have helped.

I would like to know if anyone has any help they can offer. I am trying to update our Office 2021 LTSC to Office 2024 LTSC. I have downloaded all the files needed. I have the config file. I have loaded it all up in PDQ. But when I go to deploy it on my test machine I get a pop-up on the machine saying I need to uninstall Office 2021 and visio before I can install 2024. I know I am missing something as I would think I would just be able to "upgrade" without uninstalling. Below is a copy of the config file I am trying to use.

<Configuration>

<Add OfficeClientEdition="64" Channel="PerpetualVL2024" >

<Product ID="ProPlus2024Volume" PIDKEY="My Key Removed to post here">

<Language ID="en-us" />

</Product>

<Product ID="ProofingTools">

<Language ID="en-us" />

</Product>

</Add>

<RemoveMSI />

<Display Level="None" AcceptEULA="TRUE" />
