worked for MacBook air M2 ventura 13.1 thank you
Oh, I have the same laptop and I want to install Office for myself right now. Do you think it might contain some kind of virus?

Same problem as @AbdelChamati and @mastermamo unfortunately.. any ideas please?

you can still sign-in on Office-2019? after activation with VL-serializer.

Not sure what changed in newer Macs, but I can't get to download it. Below are the problems! The default interactive shell is now zsh.
To update your account to use zsh, please run chsh -s /bin/zsh.

4you

Thank You

Successfully installed on MacOS Big Sur, and it works fine (offline) .
But I would like to know if it's safe to connect it to the internet by signing into my account?
I want to be sure I don't trigger them asking me to reactivate.
I have some files there I would prefer editing and saving online rather than offline.

I have been using Word 365 online for a while now. But recently, it's been misbehaving; keeps disconnecting and endlessly reconnecting every 1 or 2 minutes.
Anyone got a solution for that too?

UPDATE: It's safe to connect to the internet.

Lifesaver ! Thanks
