from one moment to another the "device configuration tool" stopped working, it no longer shows anything when opening the .ioc file, the strangest thing is that it stopped doing it on all my computers almost simultaneously, and without even having updated the IDE or something .

Confirmed, if the file contains pins (one or several) "locked" with no function assigned, the "Device Configuration Tool" cannot open it again, it hangs and shows only a blank window. I imagine it's a "Device Configuration Tool" bug, any solution? beyond not "locked" pins without function.

I think I know what is happening, in the project I marked several pins as "locked" but without an assigned function, after closing it the code was generated and when I wanted to open it again it no longer worked. Based on that idea, I edited the .ioc file by hand with a text editor and removed all the dead pins that were "locked", and now the file reopens in the "Device Configuration Tool" without problem.

With the Office Deployment Tool (ODT), you can download and deploy Microsoft 365 Apps to your client computers. The ODT gives you more control over installation: you can define which products and languages are installed, how those products should be updated, and whether or not to display the install experience to your users. This article covers all the available options in the tool. To learn how to use the tool itself, see Overview of the Office Deployment Tool.

Best practice: The options in this article show the XML elements and attributes in the configuration file. You can continue to create the configuration file in a text editor, but we recommend using the Office Customization Tool instead. With the Office Customization Tool, you can easily create and modify configuration files in a web-based interface. For more information, see Overview of the Office Customization Tool.

The ODT consists of two files: setup.exe and configuration.xml. To work with the tool, you edit the configuration file to define what options you want, and then run setup.exe from the command line. For example, you can edit the configuration file to download the 64-bit English edition of Microsoft 365 Apps, or you can edit the file to install the 64-bit English edition of Microsoft 365 Apps with the EULA automatically accepted and without Publisher.

When creating the configuration file, we recommend starting with an example file and updating it with the appropriate options for your environment. You can start by copying and pasting the following example into a text file and saving it with a name of your choosing. Use the file to modify the XML elements and attributes and use the rest of this article to learn more details about each of the elements and attributes.

Defines the location of the Microsoft 365 Apps installation files. If the ODT is run in download mode, defines where to save the files. If not included, the ODT looks for installation files in the same folder as the tool, and then use the Content Delivery Network (CDN). If not included and the ODT is run in download mode, the Microsoft 365 Apps installation files are downloaded to the same folder as the tool.

When you download Microsoft 365 Apps to a folder that already contains that version of Microsoft 365 Apps, the ODT conserves your network bandwidth by downloading only the missing files. For example, if you use the ODT to download Microsoft 365 Apps in English and German to a folder that already contains Microsoft 365 Apps in English, only the German language pack is downloaded.

When you use the Version attribute, we recommend including the Channel attribute as well. If you don't include the Channel attribute, the default channel is used, which might not match the specified version.

If Microsoft 365 Apps is already installed on a device, you can use Version="MatchInstalled" to install the same version, even if a newer version is available. This setting can make it easier to add language packs or Visio and Project without updating to a newer version.

Defines whether the 32-bit or 64-bit edition of Microsoft 365 Apps is downloaded or installed. If Microsoft 365 Apps isn't installed on the device and OfficeClientEdition isn't set, the ODT automatically selects the 64-bit edition. However, it selects the 32-bit edition if the device uses a 32-bit version of Windows or has less than 4-GB RAM. If Microsoft 365 Apps is installed and OfficeClientEdition not specified, the ODT matches the architecture of the existing installation of Microsoft 365 Apps. If Microsoft 365 Apps is installed and OfficeClientEdition is specified, then it must match the already installed architecture. If it doesn't, the installation fails, since mixed architectures aren't supported.

Defines which channel to use for installing Microsoft 365 Apps. If Microsoft 365 Apps isn't installed on the device, the default setting for the Channel attribute is Current. If Microsoft 365 Apps is installed on the device and the channel attribute isn't specified, the ODT matches the channel of the existing installation.

This value determines the channel to be installed, regardless of an optionally specified update channel in the Updates element or via Group Policy Setting. If there's such a setting with a different update channel, the channel switch is performed after the installation during the next update cycle. For more information, see Change the Microsoft 365 Apps update channel.

If you're deploying Office LTSC Professional Plus 2021 or Office LTSC Standard 2021, which are volume licensed versions, there's a different update channel you need to use: PerpetualVL2021. For more information, see Update channel for Office LTSC 2021.

If you're deploying Office Professional Plus 2019 or Office Standard 2019, which are volume licensed versions, there's a different update channel you need to use: PerpetualVL2019. For more information, see Update channel for Office 2019.

Defines where the installation files are downloaded from when running ODT in download mode. Most commonly used to distribute specific languages and products for Microsoft 365 Apps from a central location on your network to another location. You must specify a version when using DownloadPath, as shown in the example.

When you install languages, the ODT first searches for source files at the location given in the SourcePath attribute. If the language pack isn't available at that location and the AllowCdnFallback setting is set to True, then the ODT uses source files from the CDN.

If set to TRUE, then your existing installation of Microsoft 365 Apps is changed to the architecture (sometimes referred to as the bitness) that is specified in the OfficeClientEdition attribute. For example, you can use this attribute to change a 32-bit installation of Microsoft 365 Apps to a 64-bit installation.

If set to True, a COM object gets registered which is required for allowing update management solutions (for example, Microsoft Configuration Manager) to manage updates. Required when using Configuration Manager for Microsoft 365 Apps updates. When the Office COM object is enabled, the Update Now option on the Account page for Microsoft 365 Apps is automatically disabled for client devices.

Defines which products to download or install. If you define multiple products, the products are installed in the order in the configuration file. The first product determines the context for the Microsoft Office First Run Experience.

You can also use the Product element to add language packs to existing installations of Microsoft 365 Apps. For more information, including an example configuration file, see Deploy languages to existing installations of Microsoft 365 Apps.

Allows you to control the installation of an Office product, as specified by the ID attribute, based on whether a particular MSI-based Office product is already installed on the device. For example, if an MSI-based version of Project Professional is already installed on the device, then install Project Online Desktop Client.

You can specify any Office product installed by Windows Installer (MSI), but MSICondition is most commonly used for Project or Visio installations. The value that you specify for the MSICondition attribute can be either a volume licensed or a retail version of the product, as long as that version of the product was installed by using MSI.

The value that you specify for the MSICondition attribute is the Setup ID that is found in the Setup.xml file in the product.WW folder of the installation files for your existing version of the Office product. For example, the Setup.xml file for Visio Professional 2016 is found in the VisPro.WW folder. You can specify multiple types of an Office product, separated by a comma. For example, you can specify "PrjStd,PrjStdR,PrjPro,PrjProR" to look for installations of Project Standard or Project Professional, either volume licensed or retail.

In the following example, Project Online Desktop Client is installed on the device only if an MSI-based version of Project Standard is already installed on the device. Also, Project Standard is removed from the device as part of the installation of Project Online Desktop Client.

Defines which languages to download or install. If you define multiple languages, the first language in the configuration file determines the Shell UI culture, including shortcuts, right-click context menus, and tooltips. If you want to change the Shell UI language after the first installation, you must uninstall and then reinstall Microsoft 365 Apps.
