After a series of preview versions, Microsoft finally came out with an official version of Office 2019. It is the stable one, this
means you can download and use it right now without worrying about fatal errors which you have gotten in beta versions
before. However, I regret to inform that according to the disclosures, Microsoft Office 2019 only works on Windows 10 or
later. So if you are using Windows 8, 8.1 or older versions, you will not be able to install it. Honestly I hate what Microsoft
have done to force users to use Windows 10. In my opinion, Office 2016 is still a good choice for casual users at the moment.

How to download Office 2019 from Microsoft homepage
If you have an Office 365 subscription, your Office will be upgraded to the latest version automatically without doing
anything. However, if you are using Office 2016 or earlier versions, to make sure that Office 2019 will work normally, please
uninstall your old version of Office completely before starting a new installation. If you do not have Office 2019 already, just
go here to get official download link from Microsoft homepage and select the version you want.
Installing Office 2019 without a product key
After the download process is complete, you will get an img file. Just open it then run the setup file to install Office 2019 on
your PC.

cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16
cd /d %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16
If you install your Office in the ProgramFiles folder, the path will be “%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16” or
“%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16”. It depends on the architecture of the Windows OS you are using. If you are
not sure of this issue, don’t worry, just run both of the commands above. One of them will be not executed and an error
message will be printed on the screen.
Open Office folder
Step 1.3: Convert your retail license to volume one.

optional so just skip it if you want.
