📌 IMPORTANT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━

⚠️ Microsoft does not provide a permanent public ISO download for every Office generation.

For Office 2019 / 2021 / LTSC 2024, use the Office Deployment Tool + Office CDN rather than downloading unofficial ISO files. Microsoft’s own licensing documentation states that full ISO downloads aren’t provided for Office 2019, 2021 and 2024 through Volume Licensing. (Microsoft Learn⁠)

☑ Use official Microsoft sources whenever possible.

❌ Avoid modified Office ISOs, repacks, cracks, activators and unknown download mirrors.
