  3. Scroll through the page to find the version of Office you need. For this tutorial, we’ll focus on Office 2016 ProPlus.

Step 2: Choosing Your Language

  1. Look for your preferred language in the list of download links.
  2. Each language will have several download options. For Office 2016 ProPlus, you’ll typically see options like:
    • Office 2016 ProPlus (32-bit)

Step 3: Downloading the Installation Files

  3. Open the virtual drive and you’ll see the installation files.

Option B: Extracting the ISO File

  1. Right-click the ISO file.
  2. If you have WinRAR installed, select “Extract Here” from the WinRAR menu.
  3. If you have 7-Zip installed, go to 7-Zip > Extract Here.
  4. Wait for the extraction to complete. You’ll get a folder with all the installation files.

Step 5: Installing Office
