App Store is not letting me download the previous version. The current version is for Mac OS Catalina and above. I had it running last year but deleted the app.

Does any one know how to install Microsoft Word on Mac OS Mojave?

Microsoft maintains a comprehensive history of older versions of software that may boggle your mind in its scope.

You can see they’ve hi-lighted minimum system versions and there is a cut off as Mojave has fallen off the “current release train”.

You’ll want Word downloaded from the 10/12/21 16.54.0 21101001 line of office releases if you can’t download it as a previous purchase from the Mac App Store. Below are the full suite installs and word update direct downloads from Microsoft.

    Credit here goes the the Mac team at Microsoft for listening to people supporting their product - the engineers, managers and document team there are amazing. I just knew where to look.

  • Very useful! A doubt - If we download the suite installer, do we also have to download the Word update, Excel update etc.? Are the "updates" security / feature updates or stand-alone installed for Word, Excel etc.?

  • I’m not sure I understand it can answer in comments. Would you let me know if you ask a follow on question with some details on what specific packages or update you’re considering?

On your Mac, go to
