It's really unfortunate Microsoft has essentially stripped this option out of Office 2016 and beyond unless you pay for a subscription of some kind; but not surprising in the least. &nbsp;One of the biggest factors for using the MSI was so Office could point to my WSUS server for updates instead of online, but with C2R that is not possible. &nbsp;Thanks for the input!

Hello,<br />
<br />
I am wondering if there is any way to obtain the MSI (not C2R) version of Office 2016 Pro Plus other than through Microsoft's Volume Licensing portal? &nbsp;I would like to install the MSI version to avoid the Click-to-Run debacle, but I can't seem to find it available anywhere that Office 2013 and older could be found. &nbsp;<br />

Thank you
