Dear respected oeys,

Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.

As per your description, Office 365 Business subscription,

The internet only required to download the installer file, but once that's done, you can use command line (Office Deployment Tool) to download and install Office 365 offline without internet and use configuration.xml.  For instructions, see Use the Office offline installer - Microsoft Support

For more detail using ODT:

Hi Rich,

According to your description, it seems that the problem is related to the Office installation package used for ODT offline installation. And I also assisted you to modify the configuration.xml as following.

 

  

        

      

      

  

 

Here are the detailed steps:
**Step 1:**Copy the above xml content to the Notepad, save it as the xml file.

**Step 2:**Open Command Prompt, run the following command to download the Office installation package to local.

Note: After running this command, you will see the Office named folder in the folder and wait for some time till it downloads. Total size downloaded will be 3.04 GB, you can right-click on Office folder> Properties to check it.

Once it finished downloading completely, you will see like the image below in Command Prompt:

**Step 3:**At this time, you will get the latest version of Office installation package. Move the installation package folder to C:\Software\Office 365.

**Step 4:**Modify the configuration.xml file as shown below.

 

  

        

      

      

  

 

I deleted some unnecessary elements in your xml file. For more information about these elements, please refer to Configuration options for the Office Deployment Tool.

**Step 5:**Run setup.exe /configure xxxxx.xml to deploy Office to PC.

And for your second question, in order to ensure that Microsoft and Office related services can be accessed and run normally, we recommend that you add all addresses under Microsoft 365 Common and Office Online to the whitelist. And if possible, it is better to add other addresses to the network whitelist to ensure that related services can be activated normally.

Best regards,
Madoc

Hi Rich,

Here is a KB article for your reference: Name change for Office 365 ProPlus. As mentioned in this article, the new name will appear in Version 2004 onwards. Regarding the name of the Office is still displayed as Office 365 ProPlus, I guess this is supposed to be caused by the low version of Office.

To further check it, we would like to collect some information:

  1. Which version of Office do you have? After starting any Office app like Word, click on File > Account, please take a screenshot of the Product Information pane with the detailed version number included and share it with us.
  2. Provide the configuration.xml you are using so that we could check the details.

Best regards,
Madoc

r/Office365 on Reddit: O365 Local installer, where to get it?
December 5, 2020 -

Hi

Soon i will have to install Office 365 (Business Standard) on many computers that have a slow internet connection.

The computers are running Windows 10. And my idea is to provide the users with Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook and Teams.

Is there a way I can get the latest installer (with all latest updates) so that I can save it to a pen drive and use that instead of relying on downloading all the time?

Step 1. Download the offline installer from your account portal To download the offline installer, go to www.office.com . If you're not already signed in with the Microsoft account associated with your copy of Office do that now. If you're signed in with a different account, sign out of that and then sign in again with the correct Microsoft account. Note: If you're trying to install Microsoft 365 that you got through your work or school and you already signed in with your work or school account, don't follow these instructions. Select the Office for business tab from above instead. Select Install Office. If you have a Microsoft 365 subscription, you'll also need to select Install Office > on the Installs page. In the Download and install window, select Other options. Check the box Download an offline installer and select the language you want to install Office in. Select Download. When you're prompted, from the bottom of your browser window, select Save (in Edge), Open (in Internet Explorer), Open when done (in Chrome), or Save File (in Firefox). The file will begin downloading on your PC. Once the download is complete, open File Explorer and locate a new virtual drive, for example (D:). This drive contains the Office installation files. If you don't see the new drive, locate the image file you downloaded and double-click it. The new drive should appear in your directory. Note: If you already have a drive labeled (D:), Office creates a virtual drive with the next available letter, which would be (E:) (as shown in the next step below). Save the image: You can also choose to save a copy of this virtual drive to a thumb drive or disc for later use. Step 2. Install Office Select the Office folder from the virtual drive and then double-click either the Setup32.exe to install the 32-bit version of Office, or Setup64.exe to install the 64-bit version to begin the offline installation. If you're not sure which version is right for you, see Choose the 64-bit or 32-bit version of Office. Select the virtual drive which may be named D or the next available letter When you see the message, You're all set, you can access your Office applications. After your Office installation is complete, you need to activate Office. Be sure you're connected to the Internet and then open any Office application, such as Word or Excel. In most cases, Office is activated once you start an application and after you click Accept to agree to the License terms. If you need activation help, see Activate Office. After activating Office and before you start using it, make sure you have the latest update. In any Office app, for example Word, open a new or existing document, then select File, > Account. From the Update Options drop-down list box, select Update Now.
