Once Publisher disappears...help please.
Office Professional 2021 will still include Publisher, even after October 2026. In fact, you have the option to purchase Office Professional 2021 from Microsoft (which is an unusual offer from Microsoft, since Office 2021 has been replaced by Office 2024):

HI
I have M365 which includes Publisher. I'm not sure hat it is you are telling me. Will my Publisher continue to work as well or do I need to buy a stand alone version of Publisher ?
Will I still be able to access and see all my publisher documents ??
Thanks
Sorry, when Publisher is retired in October 2026, the app will be removed from all subscription versions.
The only way to keep Publisher after October is to get an older perpetual license. At the moment, getting Microsoft Office Professional 2021 is a possibility, because it is offered by Microsoft (see https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/office-professional-2021/cfq7ttc0hhj9/0003?msockid=3d7c9e3dfa2d635a38908822fba26275&activetab=pivot:overviewtab ).
I was asking a question, I am not sure. My plan is to download what I need on a flashdrive, then when publisher is gone, I will install a stand-alone version of publisher 2020 then see if it works.
