Overview
This package carries both recent perpetual generations in one download, which is the practical option when you are setting up several machines and not every one of them wants the same thing. Setup asks which generation, which architecture, which applications and which languages, then lays down exactly that.
The 2024 generation is the current perpetual line. Excel adds the newer array and text functions along with the improved data types and the faster calculation engine, PowerPoint adds the current transition and camera handling, Word carries the modern editing surface, and the whole suite gets the refreshed visual language with rounded controls and proper dark mode across the document canvas.
The 2021 generation is included because a lot of environments standardised on it and there is no reason to force an upgrade. It carries dynamic arrays, XLOOKUP and the collaboration surface, which covers what most offices actually use day to day, and it has the longer track record of add in compatibility.
Both generations include Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Access, Publisher and OneNote, both are offered in 32-bit and 64-bit form, and both are fully offline suites with no periodic check in. The application selection screen lets you install only what you want, which keeps a shared machine from acquiring six programs nobody opens.

Installation Notes
- Only one generation can be installed at a time. Pick during setup rather than trying to run both side by side.
- Remove any existing Office installation first, including manufacturer trials.
- The download covers both generations, so it is larger than a single generation package. This is expected.
Before You Start
Read the notes above before running setup. Most of the problems people write in about are covered there, and almost all of them come down to an older version of the same software still being installed, a graphics driver that predates the release, or a security suite quarantining part of the package mid install.
There is no archive password on this or any other entry in the library. If something you downloaded elsewhere claims to come from here and asks for one, it did not come from here. Nothing on this site is behind a survey, a shortener or a countdown either.
If the entry does not match what the page describes, say so on the contact page and include the version string from the release details table. Reports naming a specific version get checked first because the checker can reproduce them straight away.
Frequently Asked

The 2024 line unless a specific add in or a workplace standard pins you to the earlier generation.
