I have provided a guide on how to download the full version of Microsoft Office 2021. The MS Office Suite has been a popular productivity tool for business professionals and students for over two decades. It has the capability to create and edit text, and presentations, manage professional emails, prepare data sheets, and take notes. Microsoft Office Suite is an all-in-one solution for various office-related tasks.
I have covered two ways to download and install the Microsoft Office 2021 full version. One is the official method that requires you to purchase Office 2021 solely or as a part of the Microsoft 365 bundle from Microsoft’s official website.
Secondly, I have provided links to the full version downloadable files for Microsoft Office 2021, MS Offic3 2021 Pro Plus, and Microsoft Volume License for Office LTSC Professional Plus 2021. These are ISO files that you have to install manually. In this method, you do not have to pay anything and can get the app for free on your Windows PC.
Difference Between Microsoft 365 and MS Office 2021
I know those who do not keep up with the latest tech updates may find it confusing when I mention Microsoft 365 along with MS Office 2021. Let me cite the basic difference between the two.
| MS Office 2021[Home/Business] | Microsoft 365 Suite |
| If you buy this specifically, you pay a one-time fee for this product only. | You have to pay a monthly subscription fee or an annual fee for the different apps bundled under the subscription. |
| Limited to MS Word, MS PowerPoint, MS Excel | You get more apps under Microsoft 365, which include OneDrive, One Note, Microsoft Teams, MS Word, MS PowerPoint, MS Excel, MS Access, OneNote |
| No feature upgrade and no access to major releases. You have to purchase that separately | All major feature updates, security fixes, and version updates will be freely included under Microsoft 365 |
| Allowed to install for a single user on one computer Windows or Mac | Can use the same apps on up to five devices with a single subscription. With Microsoft 365 Family, you can share your subscription with five other people. |

- Start by going to Microsoft Office’s official website.

How to Install Microsoft Office 2021 ISO Files?
To access and use the contents of ISO files, you need to mount them using ISO Mounters. An ISO mounter is a software tool. When you mount an ISO image using an ISO mounter, a virtual drive is created on your computer. Open the ISO image and access its contents, such as files, folders, or executable programs, as if they were on a physical disc.
On Windows 11, without using any third-party ISO mounters, you can natively mount the ISO file. The same steps mentioned below will be applicable.
- Launch the ISO Mounter installed on your PC.
- Right-click on the ISO file in the Downloads folder.
- From the menu, select Mount.
- Using File Explorer, access the virtual drive.
- Access the executable setup file and run it.
- Follow the instructions to finish the installation.
Once the installation finishes, you will see the same “Installation successful” message which appears when you install the MS Office 2021/Microsoft 365 officially. You may need to buy a one-time license key to use Office 2021 on Windows PC.
Conclusion
If you like to stay updated with all the important productivity tools from Microsoft, then download the full version of Microsoft Office 2021. You may alternatively consider purchasing the Microsoft 365 subscription, which also includes the MS Office apps for your professional and personal use. I hope this guide was useful.
