Microsoft Office allows installers to create customized office installations, however upon entering product key or activating license key tied to a Microsoft account, the software downloads updates and installs all products that the license key is valid for. Example: Microsoft Office Home and Business 2021 custom installation script used to install '''only''' Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel. Once the license key or account license is validated users are alerted to a message stating, "This Product Requires and Update." Once the update is completed all Microsoft Office programs are downloaded and installed without the user's permission. | Microsoft Office allows installers to create customized office installations, however upon entering product key or activating license key tied to a Microsoft account, the software downloads updates and installs all products that the license key is valid for.

Once the update is completed all Microsoft Office programs are downloaded and installed without the user's permission. Included is a video demonstrating how to install Office with a custom Script. Users that do not wish to install PowerPoint, OneDrive, and other Office Apps are forced into the installation regardless of their custom script. Microsoft even created the ability for custom deployments themselves. Update blocking registry scripts, manually turning off office updates are also ignored. | ||
