    Hello Willy,

    I'm Shalom and I'd happily help you with your question. In this forum, we are Microsoft consumers just like yourself.

    It seems like you’re experiencing compatibility issues when trying to install Project 2019 alongside Office 2016 on Windows 10. This is because having two different versions of Office installed on the same computer can cause issues.

    Here are some potential workarounds:

    Upgrade your Office suite: Consider upgrading your entire Office suite to 2019. This would ensure that all your Office applications are on the same version and should eliminate any compatibility issues.

    Use a virtual machine: You could install a virtual machine on your computer and install Project 2019 on the virtual machine. This would keep the two versions separate and avoid any compatibility issues.

    Use Project Online: If your organization has a subscription to Project Online, consider using that instead of installing Project 2019 on your computer.

    Remember to back up all your data before making any changes to your software.

    Please let us know if you need more help.

    Best Regards, Shalom
