Hello,

this is the second time I get a failure (or, better, a wrong Office version) in the O365 update process through deployment tool, the first time in july 2019.

My Office 365 version was 1902 (build 11328.20480) in December, semi-annual channel. As we all know, every January and July Microsoft releases the semi-annual channel new O365 version: a couple of days ago, version 1908 (build 11929.20562) has been released for the channel. Because of I did not want to upgrade to 1908 version, I added these entries in my .xml file used for updating:

<Configuration>
<Add OfficeClientEdition="64"
Channel="Broad"
SourcePath="\\machine_ip\O365\ProPlus\SAC\Updates"
Version="16.0.11328.20512">
<Product ID="O365ProPlusRetail" PIDKEY="">
<Language ID="en-us" />
<ExcludeApp ID="Groove" />
<ExcludeApp ID="OneNote" />
<ExcludeApp ID="OneDrive" />
<ExcludeApp ID="Publisher" />
</Product>
</Add>
<Display Level="Full" AcceptEULA="TRUE" />
<Logging Level="Standard" Path="\\machine_ip\O365\ProPlus\SAC\Logs" Name="Office365-ProPlus-Updates.txt"/>
</Configuration>

As you can see in bold above, I explicited the 1902 version number published by Microsoft for January: Update history for Office 365 ProPlus (listed by date)

Unfortunately, the 1908 version was downloaded. This issue has presented last July too, when I wnted to maintain 1808, but 1902 was downloaded.

Any idea the reason it did not work?

Thank you.
