I just need outlook + libre office. What software should I choose

I am still testing a bit with outlook 2019 and exchange 2016 and wondered what licenses to choose. I got some office plus, but that seems to remove the exchange option from outlook when creating a new account and I can not deinstall all other garbage that comes with it.

So I basically need
- outlook to work with exchange 2016 and up,
- I want to keep libre office.
- cheap solution ;)
- preferably updating via our wsus (because not everything has internet)



PS. If someone can make me an outlook only image from this office deployment tool is also great. Because I do not seem to be able to get that working from our office. I think it is related to our firewall.

Hi @nonenone-7982 ,

What is the exchange option from outlook you mentioned? Is it configured as an exchange account type? If so, as far as I know, exchange account can be configured in outlook2019 and 365 client. For specific operations, please refer to:
1.File>Add account>fill in Email address, select the below "Let me set up my account manually";
2.chhose Exchange;
3.Under Exchange Account Settings, click next;
4.Done.


If it is not an exchange account, for our better research, please provide a screenshot about the exchange option if possible.


According to your description, I noticed that it seems that you only need the outlook client except the other office programs, right? If so, it is suggested that you could try to use the ExcludeApp element to remove the programs which you don't need as shown in the below figure. For more information, please refer to: Configuration options for the Office Deployment Tool.

I want to keep libre office.

In addition, the libre office seems to be a third-party program. To further confirm whether this problem is related to this program, please tell me whether issue occur before or after the installation of this program.

Hope the above help! If the above is not your case, please provide more information about your issue. For example, what are the options you mentioned, what are all other garbages, or something else.
