With Office 2019 there is not longer an MSI to install.  We now have to use the Office Deployment Tool (ODT).  I am including the configuration.XML file that you can tweak for your installation.  


NOTE:  You will need to edit the Source location to where you install the ODT.  I placed mine on my USB drive and will have to edit each time the drive letter changed.  


Once this is all done, your client PC should be activated and ready to run Office 2019.  


Here are some quick steps to install


  1. Download ODT and Install, remove pre-installed .XML files
  2. Place and edit your .XML with appropriate drive letter ( make changes to fit your needs, ie. New download folder)
  3. Open CMD prompt with admin privileges.
  4. Navigate to ODT folder in CMD prompt and run Setup.exe /download "configuration-Office2019ProPlus.XML" (or to whatever you rename it)
  5. New folder will be created in around 2 GB in size.  (CMD prompt will be busy while downloading)
  6. Once CMD is available run "setup.exe /configure configuration-Office2019ProPlus.xml
  7. Installer will now run and auto activate.
