Where to purchase Perpetual Version of Publisher 2021

Question

With Publisher no longer being available on Microsoft 365 I need to purchase a Perpetual Version of Publisher 2021 or a stand along version. Please provide a link where I can purchase either of these. I've read this can be purchased at the Microsoft store, but when I get to the Publisher page, all the links just send me to purchasing Microsoft 365 subscriptions.

Also, it seems like the stand alone version is available at 3rd party sellers, but have the warning, "This version cannot be installed in parallel with other Microsoft Office applications on the same device."

So does this mean I cannot use the stand alone versions if I currently have a 365 subscription on the the same device.

I would rather buy from Microsoft to ensure the product is legit.

Answer 1

Also looking for the same product. MS seems to want me to buy another subscription. Any help trying to purchase the 2021 stand alone Publisher would be much appreciated.

Answer 2

Currently, the perpetual version of Microsoft Publisher 2021 is not directly mentioned in the provided context. However, it is noted that Microsoft 365 does not include Publisher in all versions, and the standalone version may be available through third-party sellers. Regarding the warning about installation, it typically means that if you have a Microsoft 365 subscription installed, you may encounter issues when trying to install a standalone version of Publisher on the same device. To ensure you have a legitimate product, purchasing directly from Microsoft is advisable, but the context does not provide specific links for purchasing Publisher 2021 directly from Microsoft.

For the most accurate information on purchasing, I recommend checking the official Microsoft website or contacting Microsoft support for guidance on where to find the perpetual version of Publisher 2021.
