General Description This document describes how to prepare, add and deploy an application (Microsoft Office

Professional Plus 2016) using the Application library of System Center 2012 R2 SP1

Configuration Manager.

This document describes how to prepare, add and deploy an application (Microsoft Office

Professional Plus) using the Application library of System Center 2012 R2 SP1 Configuration

Manager.

I know that there are a lot of scenarios to cover, but instead of waiting for a big release, I’ve

decided to make this document dynamic. You should expect to see new releases of this guide

until all common deployment scenarios are covered.

Don’t forget to update your bookmarks and check if this is the latest release before you start.

Prepare Office 2016 for deployment

Overview This procedure describes how to prepare Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016 to be installed

unattended. The aim of this procedure is to create and prepare the installation source folder,

for use with System Center 2012 R2 SP1 Configuration Manager or Microsoft Intune.

This procedure does not cover:

Download the Volume License Edition of Microsoft Office 2016 installation files.

Configuration of KMS or Active Directory-Based activation

Pre-requirements In order for the operator to perform the steps describes below, the following requirements

must be in place:

The operator must have access to the volume license edition of Microsoft Office

Professional Plus 2016.

Process Steps

1. Copy all content from the Microsoft Office 2016 DVD to a source share like:

\\CM01\Source$\Applications\Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016 ENU\DT-

MSI_x86\.

Note: If an application has more than one deployment type, we need to create a source

folder (DT-MSI_x86) for each deployment type.

2. Start the Office Customization Tool (OCT), by running Setup.exe /admin, from the

source folder.

Note: The OCT is available only with the volume license editions of Office.

3. If required, click OK to the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.

4. Verify that the correct product and version is selected, and then click OK.

5. In the Default File Types, pop-up, select the format you wish to use. The default is

“Keep Current Settings”. In this example, we will select Office Open XML formats

as the default, and then click OK.

6. In the Microsoft Office Customization Tool wizard, you can customize almost all

available settings, but in this example, we will only configure a few of these settings, to

make the installation completely silent, and to provide a simple user experience to the

end users, when they install Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016, from the System

Center 2012 Application Catalog.

7. Select Install location and organization name, and fill-in your company name.

8. Select Licensing and user interface, and then select “I accept the terms in the

License Agreement”. In the Display level, select Basic, and select both Suppress

modal, and No cancel.

Note: If you do not plan to use either KMS or Active Directory-Based activation, you

should also specify the MAK product key on this page.

Active Directory-Based Activation (ADBA) is a new feature for Windows 8, 8.1 and

Windows 10, which enables enterprises to activate computers through a connection to

their domain.

More info: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh852637.aspx

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh852637.aspx

9. Select Modify Setup properties, and click Add…

10. In the Add/Modify Property Value dialog box add the following information, and click

OK.

Name: SETUP_REBOOT

Value: Never

11. To disable the Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016 Welcome screen, select Modify

user settings, expand Microsoft Office 2016, Privacy and Trust Center.

Select Disable Opt-In Wizard on first, and then double-click on the setting and

select Enable.

12. That's it… Click File and then Save as, and then save the MSP file in the Updates folder

in the source folder. You can name the MSP file whatever you like. I usually use the

company name (_ronnipedersen.msp) or something like that. If you have multiple

msp files in the updates folder, it considered best practice to name this file, so it ends

up in top of the list. The reason is that all msp files are applied in alphabetic order, and

we would like to have this configuration applied as the first one.

13. The source folder is now prepared for ready for silent installations. If you wish to test

the installation source, just run setup.exe, from the source folder, and the installation

should be 100% silent.

Create/import the Application for Office 2016

Overview This chapter describes how to create a new application (Microsoft Office Professional Plus

2016) in System Center 2012 R2 SP1 Configuration Manager.


must be in place:

The operator must have access to a system running the Configuration Manager

Administration Console

The operator must be logged in with a user account with permissions to create and

deploy applications.

Process Steps

1. In the Configuration Manager Console, navigate to Software Library / Overview /

Application Management / Applications.

2. In the ribbon menu, click Create Application.

3. In the Create Application Wizard, verify that automatically detect information is

selected and that the Type is Windows Installer (*.msi file).

Click Browse…

4. Navigate to the source folder (by using the UNC share path).

\\CM01\Source$\Applications\Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016

ENU\DT-MSI_x86\proplus.ww\, and select the proplusww.msi file, and click

Open.

Note: Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016, should not be deployed as a native MSI

file (by using the msiexec.exe command), but by selecting the MSI file when we create

the application, things like deployment type and detection methods are created

automatically.

5. On the General page of the Create Application Wizard page, click Next.

6. Verify that the imported information is correct, and that the import was successful.

Click Next.

7. On the General Information page, verify that the Name is displayed as you would

prefer to see it in the Configuration Manager Console. Fill-in the Manufacturer

(Microsoft Corporation ), and the Software version (2016).

8. In the Installation program, delete the default value (msiexec.exe /i

"ProPlusWW.msi" /q), and type Setup.exe.

9. Verify that Install behavior is configured to Install for System, and click Next.

10. On the Summary Page, click Next.

11. On the Completion page, verify that the application was created successful and click

Close.

12. In the Configuration Manager console, select the newly created Microsoft Office

Professional Plus 2016 application.

13. Select the Deployment Types tab.

14. Right-click the deployment type Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016 –

Windows Installer (*.msi file), and select Properties.

15. Select the Content tab, and change the content location to

\\CM01\Source$\Applications\Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016

ENU\DT-MSI_x86\, by removing the "proplusww\" in the end of the pre-configured

location.

16. Select the Programs tab and change the Uninstall program command to Setup.exe

/uninstall ProPlus.

Note: In order to uninstall Office 2016 and other similar products like Project and Visio, we

need to run Setup with the [ProductID] switch. You can look up the value of [ProductID] in the

Setup.xml file for the product that you want to modify.

You can also customize the /uninstall option by using it with /config and a modified

Config.xml file. This is necessary if you want to run a 100% “silent” uninstall.

Example (SilentUninstallConfig.xml):

<Configuration Product="ProPlus">

<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />

</Configuration>

More information on uninstall can be found here:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178956.aspx#BKMK_uninstall

17. Select the Detection Method tab, and verify that a detection method for the MSI

Product Code has been created.

18. Select the Requirements tab, and click Add…

Note: You can create many different types of requirement rules, but in this example, I

will provide three common examples on requirement rules, we can use to target the

right deployment type for the right system/environment.

19. Create a Requirement rule with the following settings, and click OK.

a. Category = Device

b. Condition = Total physical memory

b. Condition = Disk Space


d. Select local logical drive = System drive

e. Operator = Greater than or equal to

22. Click Add…



b. Condition = Operating System


d. Operator = One of

i. All Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

ii. All Windows 10 (64-bit)

24. Click OK.

25. Click OK.
