Windows 10: After WIN 10 Pro Update from version 1909 to 2004 Office Professional 2019 changed to...

July 17, 2020


Have WIN 10 PRO version 2004, with all the updates and Office Professional 2019 on an Alienware Area-51m laptop, which is 11 months old. NO games at all in my machine. Another member asked if I had or have Office 365 - the answer is NO.


When I opened any of the Office products Outlook, Word, Excel, etc. the opening starts with a small window stating Office 365 vs. Office 2019. In addition, the top formatting ribbon portion looks very different in format, color and resolution.


This change occurred when doing the last WIN 10 Pro update 2004. Tried doing a System Restore and it did NOT work.



UPDATE: July 23, 2020

Without doing a darn thing, the system went back to the original Office Professional 2019! This is great, but Why? How can it revert to the original program without me doing a thing??


Any clues?

:)

Office 2019

Only supported on Win10. Sorry, 8.1 users, only 4 years old, gotta go.

Microsoft Office 2019 will only work on Windows 10

Spoiler Office 2019
Last year at Ignite, we announced Office 2019 – the next perpetual version of Office that includes apps (including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, and Skype for Business) and servers (including Exchange, SharePoint, and Skype for Business). Today we’re pleased to share the following updates:

• Office 2019 will ship in H2 of 2018. Previews of the new apps and servers will start shipping in the second quarter of 2018.
• Office 2019 apps will be supported on:
  • Any supported Windows 10 SAC release
  • Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2018
  • The next LTSC release of Windows Server
• The Office 2019 client apps will be released with Click-to-Run installation technology only. We will not provide MSI as a deployment methodology for Office 2019 clients. We will continue to provide MSI for Office Server products.

Dave M121, Thanks!!

As the saying goes: "Oh, what a relief it is!"

Today, as I posted the update, it reverted back to my original Office Pro 2019.

Thanks again,
