Here is a link to MS that clarifies much of the situation.įor starters, this current page needs to be renamed "Office 2019 365". This current MU page is a mash up of both and just confusing the heck out of a lot of people. MU Editors: You can help clarify much of the confusion regarding 365 vs retail/On the Premises versions of Office. If you have 365 or a retail copy of 2019, go over to the 2019/365 MU page at to get latest updates, and if you want to be notified, sign up to receive notices for that product line.

16.18 and beyond is exclusively for 2019 and 365 and even those will eventual split as well, when ever support for 2019 retail ends (2023?).īOTTOM LINE TO USERS: IF YOU PURCHASED A COPY OF OFFICE 2016, EITHER ONE TIME PURCHASE (RETAIL) OR VOLUME, DO NOT INSTALL ANY UPDATES OF VERSION 16.18.X OR HIGHER, YOUR LICENSE WILL GET CONVERTED. Any future updates to 2016 will never exceed version number 16.18.

Notices should not be sent to the 2016 group unless it is an actual update SPECIFICALLY FOR 2016. Now that the two product lines are separated and tracked separately, what needs to happen is that users who previously signed up for notices about 2016, need to separately sign up for notices on 2019 (IF, and only if they are interested in 2019). Anyone who applies this update to a retail/volume copy of 2016 will get updated and their license converted to 365 subscription, in other words they will be prompted to start paying subscription, when before they had one time purchase license. The email advised me that update 16.18.0 Build (18101400) was available for Office 2016 I repeat the email says an update for '2016'. One thing still needs to be fixed however, as of today (Oct 17, 2018) I received a MU update email because I am signed up to receive notices about Office 2016. MU Editors: Thank you for splitting out 20 onto separate pages.

Luckily, and to my surprise, Office 2011 still works great on El Capitan! :-)

So, one might argue that it's just a question of "learning curve", but tell me why I should spend so much time learning how to do what I was easily doing before, and why I should accept the loss of my preferred features when, in the end, it doesn't run faster than Office 2011 and I even had crashes. Powerpoint: I haven't worked with PP 2016 yet but I expect some disappointment too as I still had to go to PP 2004 in some cases (PP 2011 doesn't accept too many slides!) Outlook: can't move profiles to a different drive using a symlink as before (I found some tutorial to achieve that by modifying the app but it didn't work for me)

Excel: graphical bug for complex graphs with lots of non-adjacent cells - it's obviously designed for adjacent cells and doesn't accept too many arguments. no more custom toolbars - I had one for Excel and two for Word. Well, I can't say it's not working great, globally, but I'm pretty much disappointed because of the disappearance of a few things that I find important in former versions such as: One of the things that decided me to update my OS from 10.9 to 10.11 was Office 2016.
