Event details
We are a global company with users who need Microsoft 365 Apps in different languages. We deploy applications using Intune and autopilot, currently installing Office 365 Apps and all language packs on every device, which results in a large download and installation process. What is the most efficient way to handle this, and how do other companies approach it?
- Maggie_DakevaOct 16, 2025Microsoft Hi! Have you considered letting the Office apps install outside of Autopilot so users won't have to wait? And if that's not an option, could you share more about the challenge with this approach? - anandpladis1Oct 16, 2025Copper ContributorHi Maggie, thanks for replying. We purchase devices with ready to provision image (Windows 11 Ent, no retail bloatware), but Office 365 Apps are not included. After AutoPilot, deploying Office via Intune triggers a 16GB download due to language packs, which is time-consuming. Should we install Office 365 Apps before AutoPilot on the base image? What’s the best way to handle multiple language packs?
