Add Office 2016 Apps in the Launch Conditions software list

Hi,

As Office 2016 Preview is already available, please add Office 2016 Apps in the list for "Installed Office Application" under Software tab for Launch Conditions. Office 2016 GA will also be released soon.

Hope this will be included in the next version of Advanced Installer.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Add Office 2016 Apps in the Launch Conditions software list

Hi Bogdan,

Is there an ETA for this?

As per Microsoft guys (Office Product Group), Office 2016 will be releasing on August 2016.

Thanks

Re: Add Office 2016 Apps in the Launch Conditions software list

Hi Prasad,

We had some problems with the new editions of Windows 10 and Office 2016. Microsoft delayed considerably updating their manifests and version registry values
which broke our detection mechanisms. Because of this we could only deliver the launch conditions for Windows 10 in version 12.3.

In version 12.4 we will include the ones for Office 2016 and we should also update our support to install Windows Features, to support Win 10 too.

Our 12.4 release is scheduled for the beginning of August, but unfortunately I do not have an exact release date to share.

Bogdan

I would also be very interested in this... We are getting more and more requests for Outlook 2016.

Hi,

Development on the launch conditions will be completing this week. By the end of the month we will perform tests, manual and automated, and if all goes well
version 12.4 will be released in the last week of August.

We had to re-invent the wheel in some cases because Microsoft seems forget about its underlying technologies from time to time and we want to make sure we deliver
the perfect solution to your teams. Because of this we decided to delay the updates until now.

Thank you for your continuous feedback. As always, it was very useful in setting our priorities.

Regards,
Bogdan
