Common dangers:

1. Trojanized installers – Attackers embed ransomware or keyloggers.
2. Fake KMS activators – Often contain cryptocurrency miners or remote access trojans (RATs).
3. Modified DLLs – Can bypass antivirus but also steal credentials.
4. Bundled adware – Changes browser settings and injects ads.

5. Deployment & Installation Notes

A. Architecture Considerations

• No Mixed Bitness: You cannot install the 64-bit version of Office 2016 if you have 32-bit Office applications already installed (and vice versa). You must uninstall the opposing architecture first.
• Add-in Compatibility: The 64-bit version requires 64-bit versions of third-party plugins and add-ins (e.g., legacy ActiveX controls). Organizations relying on legacy 32-bit plugins should verify compatibility before deploying the w64 release.

B. Installation Method As this is an MSI-based volume license release (indicated by the sw-dvd5 naming convention), installation is typically performed via:

1. Setup.exe: Running the executable directly from the mounted ISO.
2. Command Line: Using setup.exe /admin to create a Setup Customization File (MSP) for silent installation and pre-configuration of the product key and user settings.
