Microsoft Office 2016 For Mac Removal Tool
Microsoft Office 2016 (codenamed Office 16) is a version of the Microsoft Office productivity suite, succeeding both Office 2013 and Office for Mac 2011, and preceding Office 2019 for both platforms. It was released on macOS on July 9, 2015 and on Microsoft Windows on September 22, 2015 for Office 365 subscribers. If you’ve simply had enough of Office 2016 crashing on your Mac or just want to completely remove it, here’s how to fully uninstall Microsoft Office 2016 for Mac. Office 2016 is a huge package taking up more than 6GB of disk space (compared to 2.5GB in Office 2011 for Mac) with hundreds of files, libraries and components.
If you currently have a subscription to Office 365, you’ll be pleased to know you can upgrade to Office 2016 right now in just a matter of a few minutes. Today we’ll quickly show you how to do that on a Windows PC and Apple Mac.

Office 2016 is a much welcome upgrade for any existing Office installation, particularly for Mac users who’ve been suffering under the rather awful Office 2011 with its ugly, clunky interface. Office 2016 brings welcome uniformity by making the Mac version nearly identical to the Windows version.
You can easily update your existing Windows installation but all that will do is give you the latest version. So if you’re running Office 2013, you’ll get the latest stable version of 2013.
To upgrade, you will need to use the Office website and sign in with your Microsoft account.
Once signed in, you’ll simply need to click the area under “Install” where it says “New: Office 2016 is now available.”
Next, click the “Install” button on the resulting page.
Click the setup executable, either from your browser or in your downloads folder.
User Account Control should pop up to ask you if you want the installer app to make changes to your computer. Click “Yes” to continue and the installer should take care of the rest.
The upgrade process on the Mac is similar in that you will follow the same procedure – go to the Office website, click on the area where is says Office 2016 is available, and then click “Install” to download the .pkg file.
Double-click on the .pkg file to start the installer, which will be much different from the Windows installer.
Nevertheless, simply click through the prompts to upgrade your installation. Note, however, if you’re intending to upgrade from Office 2011, which is pretty terrible and thus you should, it’s best advised to uninstall that first before proceeding with the new Mac version.
Sadly, that Office for Mac version doesn’t have an uninstaller such as you would find on Windows so you will need to uninstall it manually. Luckily, you can follow our guide, complete with screenshots, to help you with that process.
We hope this article was helpful in showing you how easy and straightforward upgrading to Microsoft Office 2016 is. If you have any questions or comments you would like to contribute, please leave them in our discussion forum.

I’m ready to switch from Apple Pages to Microsoft Word and hear that Microsoft just released an entirely new and updated Office 2016. What’s the easy way to upgrade?
You’re correct that Microsoft has just released a completely new, completely redesigned version of its flagship product, Microsoft Office, for Mac systems. In fact, it’s a cross-platform release and is new for Windows systems too, along with iPad, Android and Windows tablet support and a completely different way of working with OneDrive, Microsoft’s cloud storage system (that competes with iCloud, Apple’s cloud storage system).
The entire Microsoft Office 2016 suite for Mac includes Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Word and Outlook, though it sounds like you might only be looking for the word processor piece of that (Microsoft Word). Unlike previous years when it was priced at almost $500 for the entire suite of programs, Microsoft’s apparently rethought its pricing strategy too and you can get everything for $150 in the Home & Student download edition through, for example, Amazon.com.
We were lucky here at AskDaveTaylor in that Microsoft sent us along a license key for testing and review purposes. That’s my disclosure too, in case you’re wondering. 🙂
To get started with the download, you can log in to the Office 365 site after you’ve received your license key (either from Amazon, Microsoft.com, or from purchasing a license at the local retail store). It’ll look like this:
If you look closely, you’ll see that mine shows “PC/Mac Installs Used: 0”. This is a big deal, actually, because for the first time I can remember, Microsoft is using the same license for either platform. With this license, I get five installs, whether I want to use them on Macs, Windows systems, iPads, or my Windows Phone is up to me. Very nice improvement over the Mac license as completely separate from a Windows license.
To proceed, I’ll click “Install >”.
Look at that list of “Other Devices”. So impressive!
But let’s stay focused on the Mac side. You can see that since I am already on a MacBook Pro, it’s default selected “Office 2016 for Mac” as the version to install.
Sounds good! A click on “Install” and it’ll download the Office Installer:
For using this, you just simply download the complete setup of Paint Tool Sai from our blog. When you completely download Paint Tool Sai on your OS. Simply install Paint Tool Sai on your OS. When the procedure of installation of Paint Tool Sai is done. Painttool SAI is Windows only, if you only require Sai Paint tool exactly for Mac, you can be place on Mac via Win gui desktop, like WineHQ or CrossOver which can get Windows productivity applications and PC games up and running on Mac. 
I found this download to move pretty quickly, but depending on connectivity, it might take you a few minutes to get the entire package.
Once downloaded, the installer should pop right up and start:
If you’ve used the Mac for any length of time, you’re already familiar with this process.
Let’s look at one thing, however: disk space required. That’s shown on a subsequent screen:
It’s slightly disappointing that there’s no way to pick and choose which of the Microsoft Office 2016 tools you want to install — in your case, perhaps just Word, in our case, everything but Outlook — but that’s something that can hopefully be tweaked after installation. Meanwhile, just notice the install takes up 6.78GB of space on your computer.
Before you start the install, then, make sure you have that much disk space!
A click on “Install”, a few additional clicks to accept a user license that you’re not going to read (we don’t!) and…

Hurray! We’re done.
Well, almost.
Click “Close” and you’ll have Word 2016 launch, but with a few informational windows along the way, starting with this highlight of updated features and capabilities:
Okay, sounds good!
Click on “Get started >” to proceed and Office actually starts up:

It really is smart to use this account because it makes it absolutely a no-brainer to have cloud-based backups of your documents, spreadsheets, presentations and related.
Once you’re signed in, there’s one more step:
I picked Colorful – it’s very nice! – and, finally, a click on “Continue >” and Microsoft Word 2016 finally launches.
Office 2016 installed. Mission accomplished.
And boy is the interface a much overdue facelift and improvement, as you can see in this peek at a column I’m writing for the local newspaper in Microsoft Word 2016:
Huge props to Microsoft for a very, very well done upgrade. Office 2016 feels like a completely new and very Mac-friendly application suite that might just replace Pages, Numbers, Keynote and the rest of the Apple office suite on our Mac systems here in the office. Not to mention on our Windows systems!
