This guide shows you how to download, install and activate Microsoft Office 2019 Professional Plus on Windows 10 or Windows 11, using the official installer from Microsoft's servers. It takes about 15 minutes. You'll need a genuine Office 2019 Professional Plus product key.
Support note: Microsoft ended support for Office 2019 on October 14, 2025. It still works fully but no longer receives security updates, and Microsoft no longer supports it with Microsoft 365 services. For ongoing support, see Office 2024 Professional Plus.
What's Included
Office 2019 Professional Plus installs Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, Access, Publisher and Skype for Business. It's popular with budget buyers and offices that need to match existing Office 2019 installations.
Requirements
- Windows 11 or Windows 10
- 1.6 GHz, 2-core processor
- 4 GB RAM (64-bit) or 2 GB (32-bit)
- 4 GB free disk space
Step 1: Remove Other Office Versions
Open Settings → Apps → Installed apps and uninstall any Microsoft 365, Office 2016, Office 2021 or trial versions. Mixed versions are the most common cause of "product key isn't valid" errors. Restart afterwards.
Step 2: Download the Installer
Download the Office 2019 Professional Plus installer image (English) directly from Microsoft's servers (about 4 GB). For other languages, contact our support team.
Step 3: Install
- Double-click ProPlus2019Retail.img to mount it.
- Run Setup.exe from the new drive and approve the User Account Control prompt.
- Wait for "You're all set!" and click Close.
Step 4: Activate
- Open Word. In the activation window, choose Enter product key instead, or go to File → Account → Change Product Key.
- Enter your key and click Activate Office.
- Check File → Account. It should show "Product Activated — Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2019".
If activation fails, check your internet connection and try again. If it still fails, contact our support team.
