Office 2019 Windows 7 Compatibility

Office 2019 is restricted to Windows 10, Windows Server 2019, and Windows 10 LTSC 2019. Business versions of Office 2019 are also only available in bulk licensing form, with a minimum of a 5 license purchase. Office 2019 Home may be installed. We've recently deployed a 2019 Exchange environment and in all our testing, Windows 7 will fail autodiscovery and ultimately drop the connections with Outlook & Exchange even on machines that had an existing connection to 2013 Exchange. All editions of Office 2013 and above work fine on Windows 10, however nothing on Windows 7 other than OWA.

Earlier today, Microsoft announced Office 2019 for Windows and Mac. Like its earlier versions, Office 2019 also includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Visio, Project, Outlook, and Publisher applications.

Office 2019 includes all the features that have been added to Office 365 since the release of Office 2016.

Ever since Microsoft announced Office 2019 preview earlier this year, some users have been asking if they can install and run Office 2019 on Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1.

Is Office 2019 compatible with Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1?

Well, Office 2019 doesn’t support Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1. It is compatible with only the latest version of Windows operating system, which is Windows 10. On the server side, it requires Windows Server 2019.

The Workaround to get Office 2019 on Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1

There is no way out there to install Office 2019 on Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1. However, since Office 365 is compatible with Windows 7 SP 1 and Windows 8/8.1, you can buy Office 365 (which offers all the features of Office 365 and much more) subscription and install it on Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1 with ease.

For those who are hearing Office 365 for the first time, Office 365 is a subscription service whereas Office 2019 is a one-time purchase.

So, in short, you cannot install Office 2019 on Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1. For your reference, here are the minimum system requirements for running Office 2019.
