Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2013

This section applies to Microsoft Dynamics CRM for Microsoft Office Outlook when you use either Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 (on-premises) or Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online.

There may be occasions when you have to install Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 for Microsoft Office Outlook where there is no Internet connection available. Common occasions are when you are creating virtual demonstration environments, such as when you use Hyper-V, and environments that use firewalls or other security requirements that block Internet access.

Note

To install CRM for Outlook without an Internet connection, you must first download all prerequisite components. To do this, you will need a computer that has an Internet connection to download all the prerequisites beforehand.

Notice that, when you download the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 ISO from MSDN, or have a physical DVD that you are installing from, you will already have the Redist folder and all the prerequisites downloaded. However, if you download the CRM for Outlook installation media from the Microsoft Download Center, you must manually build this Redist prerequisite folder structure.

Step 1: Create the Redist folder structure

First, create the Redist folder structure in the installation media at the same level as the Client folder.

• Depending on the installation media, there may be additional files such as autorun.inf, msvp100.dll, and so on.
