Method 2: Using the Office Deployment Tool

Before you begin, let’s take a look about Microsoft Office Deployment Tool.

In the new version of the Office Deployment Tool, there is a parameter helps you uninstall any previous versions of Office automatically before installing Microsoft 365 Apps.

<Configuration>

  <Add OfficeClientEdition="64" Channel="PerpetualVL2021">
    <Product ID="ProPlus2021Volume">
      <Language ID="en-us" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Lync" />
    </Product>
  </Add>

  <Remove All="True" />

  <!--  <RemoveMSI All="True" /> -->
  <!--  <Display Level="None" AcceptEULA="TRUE" />  -->
  <!--  <Property Name="AUTOACTIVATE" Value="1" />  -->

</Configuration>

So, we’ll create a xml configuration file with the Remove All element only.

Then run the Office Deployment tool in the configure mode using the following command:

setup.exe /configure configuration-remove-all.xml

The new window opens, let’s click Uninstall to completely remove all exist Microsoft Office apps automatically.
