I keep getting error 1935 when trying to install Office Standard 2016 on a brand new PC running Windows 10 for workstations build 1803.  I have tried:

Here's the build process:

  1. remove bloatware.
  2. run updates. (installs 1803 update)
  3. install anti-virus
  4. install office.

Gotten this error on 4 consecutive machines.

  1. removeing all c++ resdistributalbes 
  2. netfx repair tool
  3. sfc /scannow

Tried items suggested here:

but to no avail.

Any ideas?

    There's preinstalled office apps on these computers, I figure they let you log on with office 365 and they install themselves. I reckon these apps have something to do with the error we're experiencing.

    Good one lol. I tried all kinds of things the last time I had the issue including a factory restore and none of the options worked except the registry change. This is on the similar new laptops I mentioned. I tried several installers for office 2016 but I probably never tried the full 365 download from office.com. I have my suspicion that it might still fail because it is a standalone version and not an APP.  If they have 365 as an APP from the online store that would have likely worked.

    Thanks :)

    Yes I have scrolled down this thread a couple of times the last year :) Sometimes more desperate than others. And every time I mumble to myself "They're just doing this to make me switch to office 365"

    I totally get it. I just wanted to make sure you had tried it. You probably had to scroll pretty far down to see that possible solution.
