This is a Mendeley problem, not a Word problem. It is their job to set their software up to work with the versions of Word that they are supposed to. Mendeley is the Add-In. Plugin is just another term for Add-In.
Mendeley word PLUGIN for the software doesn't support the Office 365 click-to-run version of Word

Hi! I want to install the Mendeley cite plugin for my Word 365, but the software doesn't support the Office 365 click-to-run version of Word. It works for other versions of word, but not 365. How can I get around this and NOT use a click-to-run version of word? Will the software plugin work if I purchase the Office package as a one off purchase, not a 365 subscription - can this be the solution? Please note that I am not talking about the cite add-in, but about the PLUGIN. I've seen the question asked before, but the answers talk about the add-in. The plugin has many more functions than the add-in.
Thanks in advance!

2024-08-31T16:15:42.0466667+00:00 It may be the same thing in theory, but the reality is that the plugin has many functions that the add-in does not have. They are therefore different. Is there a way I can install an older version of Word (<2016), which would run with the plugin and allow me to do what I need to do?
