Visio Professional
Think I found the answer.
It appears that Stand-alone Visio and Office 365/Office 2016 Click-to-Run are not compatible.
Sad but I guess true.
Went through this last week. I discovered these

The technet article explains how you can install Visio as a click to run product using the Office Deployment Tool and modifying the configuration file for those of us with Volume licensing. Unfortunately, it doesn't work with MAK keys which is what we bought in January through our renewal. Currently trying to work with our software vendor to see what we are going to do to fix this.

Thanx for the links.
Guess we do without Visio since we are on Office 365 and the beancounters aren't going to go the subscription cost.
Such is life :-(

Someone just told me yesterday that you can install the Visio 2013 Pro version and it will work. I haven't tried it yet.

Interesting that it would work. Don't have that version.
