Hello Daniel,

 

I agree the Version To Report key is going to cause issues especially after a few updates to Office. I think a better approach is  to change the detection logic  to search for the following key.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\O365ProPlusRetail - en-us

 

If this key is present then Office 365 ProPlus is installed. 

 

Any questions or concerns let me know.

      We use the uninstall key location for visio or project

      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\VisioProXVolume - en-us\VisioProXVolume - en-us
