Is the VL edition of Office a must for Windows Virtual Desktop?
I followed the steps to get Office installed via shared computer licensing, and Office gives me the same error. Here is the config file I used if you are curious. I think it has more to do with the version of Office being installed rather than the delivery method
have same problems. thanks!

BrainGreenLab I think I figured out the trick. If you have the Office deployment tool push Office 2019 Enterprise, it seems to work. We'll see if it works long term with multiple users, but so far so good. I never could get the installer to work from a network share from a VM, so I just ran it straight on the client itself.

Christopher AndersonYou can't use a Volume license unless you purchased licensing that way. Did they change the licensing terms because we were told we could not do that a few years ago? You would need a MKS and KMS license to activate it.
Seems weird they would require the volume license for a cloud offering like this.
