How to Install Visio Professional with Office 365

Installing Visio 2021 after installing Office 365 kept failing with an error message.

After trying multiple suggestions I found the answer at checkyourlogs posted by Cary Sun.

Steps:

1. Download the Office Deployment Tool
2. Create a new configuration.xml file with the following contents (update product id to match id of your Visio version):

<Configuration>
    <Add OfficeClientEdition="64">
        <Product ID="VisioPro2021Retail">
            <Language ID="en-us" />
        </Product>
    </Add>
</Configuration>

3. In the folder where you installed/unpacked the deployment tool run setup /configure configuration.xml
4. All good and you can start Visio and enter your product key.
