Hi Team,

My question would be what is the right way to install M365 products like Excel on an Azure Virtual Machine instance? This machine is not an RDS server. This machine has Windows Server 2012 R2 running on it.

Could you please point me to a documentation where I can get more information about install M365 products on standalone VMs with Windows Server on them, no RDS, no Virtual Desktop.

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards,

Istvan Varga

    Dear SteeveOneOne0,

    Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.

    According to my investigation and official instructions, Microsoft 365 Apps isn't supported on Windows Server 2012 R2, we recommend that you move to Windows 365 or Azure Virtual Desktop

    Ref:Windows Server end of support and Microsoft 365 Apps - Deploy Office | Microsoft Docs

     

    Using Azure Virtual Desktop, you can install Office 365 by following the steps in this document: Download and install or reinstall Microsoft 365 or Office 2021 on a PC or Mac
