In many cases, you can install Office, Project, and Visio on the same computer. But, there are some combinations of Office, Project, and Visio that can't be installed together on the same computer.The two main things that determine whether Office, Project, and Visio can be installed together on the same computer are the version of the product and the installation technology used to install the product. What governs whether an installation scenario is supported are these two rules:

• You can't install two products together that have the same version but use different installation technologies.
• You can't install two products of different versions together if both products use Click-to-Run as the installation technology and those products have overlapping Office applications.

Availability through Microsoft 365 as a subscription. Roaming application—ability to install Visio temporarily on a Windows 10, Windows 8, or Windows 7 PC.

See the example installation scenarios section for several examples of installation scenarios that are supported and not supported, along with an explanation of why they are or aren't supported, based on the rules listed above.

Office releases and their version number

The following table shows Office releases that are currently supported by Microsoft, their associated version, and all the possible installation technology. The information listed in the table also applies to releases of Project and Visio. For example, the subscription version of the Project desktop app or Visio Professional 2016.

You can find this version information by going to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features. You can also find this version in the About dialog for the Office app. For example, open Word, and go to File > Account > About Word. On the top line of the About Microsoft Word dialog box, you will see the version number. For example, Microsoft Word 2019 MSO (16.0.10336.20044) 32-bit. For steps to find this version in different Office releases, see Find details for other versions of Office.

Note

• Office 365, Microsoft 365, Office 2019, and Office 2016 all have the same version: 16.0
• Office 2010, which is no longer supported, had a version of 14.0 and used Windows Installer (MSI) as the installation technology.

Installation technologies used by Office

There are different ways to purchase Office, Project, and Visio. For example, you can purchase them as part of an Office 365 (or Microsoft 365) plan, as a one-time purchase from a retail store, or through a volume licensing agreement. How you purchase them, along with which Office release you purchased – for example, Office 365 or Office 2016 – determines what installation technology is used to install Office.

The three installation technologies are:

• Click-to-Run
• Windows Installer (MSI)
• Microsoft Store

In newer releases of Office, you can go to File > Account in any Office app, such as Word, and the type of installation technology is listed under the Product Information section.

Another way to tell which installation technology was used to install Office is to File > Account in any Office app. Under the Product Information section, if you see an Update Options choice, Office was installed by using Click-to-Run. If you don't see an Update Options choice, and you don't see any mention of Microsoft Store, then Office was installed by using Windows Installer (MSI).

The Microsoft Store installation technology is only used when you purchase and install Office from the online Microsoft Store.

You can't rely on just the product name and release to determine the installation technology used by Office. Spotify for mac not downloading. For example, if you purchase Visio Standard 2016 from a retail store, it uses Click-to-Run. But, if you purchase Visio Standard 2016 through a volume licensing agreement, it uses Windows Installer (MSI).

Example installation scenarios

Here are some example installation scenarios, whether they're supported, and an explanation of why they are or aren't supported.

¹ You must be using at least Version 1808 of Microsoft 365 Apps, because that's the earliest version that recognizes Office 2019 products, including Project and Visio. Version 1808 or later is available in Current Channel, Monthly Enterprise Channel, Semi-Annual Enterprise Channel (Preview), and Semi-Annual Enterprise Channel. For Microsoft 365 Apps release information, see Update history for Microsoft 365 Apps.

Additional information

• All installed products must be either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version. For example, you can't install a 32-bit version of Visio on the same computer with a 64-bit version of Office.
• Even though a particular installation scenario is supported, it might not be recommended. For example, we don't recommend having two different versions of Office installed on the same computer, such as Office 2013 (MSI) and Office 2019 (Click-to-Run).
• Volume licensed versions of Office 2013 and Office 2016 use Windows Installer (MSI). Volume licensed versions of Office 2019 use Click-to-Run. The same is true for volume licensed versions of Project and Visio.
• For Office 365, Microsoft 365, and Office 2019 products, all products installed on the computer must be using the same update channel. For example, the volume licensed version of Office Professional Plus 2019 can only use the PerpetualVL2019 update channel. Therefore, it can't be installed on the same computer that has the subscription version of the Project desktop app using Semi-Annual Enterprise Channel or on the same computer that has the subscription version of the Visio desktop app using Current Channel.

Usually you deploy volume licensed versions of Project 2016 and Visio 2016 by using the Windows Installer (MSI) installation technology. But that won't work if you're trying to install volume licensed versions of Project 2016 and Visio 2016 on the same computer as Microsoft 365 Apps. That's because Microsoft 365 Apps uses Click-to-Run as its installation technology, and in this case, having MSI and Click-to-Run installations on the same computer isn't supported.

To help you deploy volume licensed versions of Project 2016 and Visio 2016 on the same computer as Microsoft 365 Apps, we've provided an alternative installation method: you can use the Office Deployment Tool to do the installation of Project and Visio. The Office Deployment Tool uses Click-to-Run to do the installation, instead of using Windows Installer (MSI). But, Project and Visio are still activated by volume activation methods, such as Key Management Service (KMS) or Multiple Activation Key (MAK).

Important

• MAK keys that you use for Windows Installer (MSI) installations of Project and Visio won't work with the Office Deployment Tool. You need a different MAK key to deploy volume licensed versions of Project and Visio with the Office Deployment Tool. To get that MAK key, log into the Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC) and use the key listed under 'C2R-P for use with the Office Deployment Tool.'
• These steps don't apply to volume licensed versions of Project 2019 and Visio 2019. For more information about deploying volume licensed versions of Project 2019 and Visio 2019, see Deploy Office 2019.

Tip

Instead of using a text editor to create your configuration file, we recommend that you use the Office Customization Tool (OCT). The OCT provides a web-based interface for making your selections and creating your configuration file to be used with the Office Deployment Tool. For more information, see Overview of the Office Customization Tool.

Add Ms Visio To Office 365

If you are using the Office Customization Tool or want to specify the update channel manually, you must pick the same update channel as your existing Office installation is already using. For example, if you want to add Project to devices which already have Microsoft 365 Apps installed and configured for Monthly Enterprise Channel, you need to specify the same update channel for Project 2016 in the configuration file.

You can also edit the Updates element in the configuration file to determine how the installation of Project or Visio is updated. For example, you can configure it so that updates are automatically installed from the Office Content Delivery Network (CDN) on the internet, which is the default, or from a file share on your local network.

If you're not familiar with the Office Deployment Tool, it's usually used to customize deployments of Click-to-Run versions of Office products, such as Microsoft 365 Apps. For more information, see Overview of the Office Deployment Tool.

Here's an example of a configuration file that can be used to install a 64-bit version of Visio Professional 2016 in English from the Office CDN using a GVLK.

For information about other settings, see Configuration options for the Office Deployment Tool.

Then, use the Office Deployment Tool to download and install Project or Visio.
