Looking to install and activate Microsoft Visio Professional 2016 on your Windows PC? Whether you’re a first-time user or reinstalling the software, this detailed guide will walk you through each step — from downloading and installation to final activation. We’ve included support for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions, plus helpful tips to avoid common issues.


Download Microsoft Visio Professional 2016

After purchasing Visio Professional 2016 from a trusted source like Indigo Software, you’ll receive:

  • A unique 25-character product activation key.
  • An official ISO download link for the installation files (sent via email).

Note: When installing, you might see a message that says “Getting your Office” — this is completely normal and part of the standard Visio installation process.

How to Install Microsoft Visio Pro 2016

For 64-bit Installation:

  1. Download the ISO file from the email link you received after purchase.
  2. Right-click the file and select Mount to open the virtual disk.
  3. Navigate to the Office folder inside the mounted drive.
  4. Run setup64.exe.
  5. Let the installation process complete. The installer may display “Getting your Office” — this is expected and normal.

For 32-bit Installation:

  1. Follow the same steps to download and mount the ISO file.
  2. Open the mounted folder and go to the Office subfolder.
  3. Run setup32.exe.
  4. Wait for the installation to finish. You’ll see “Getting your Office” — again, this is standard behavior.

Activating Microsoft Visio 2016

Once the software is installed:

  1. Launch Microsoft Visio.
  2. Click Sign In, but do not complete the sign-in process at this stage.
  3. On the following screen, choose Enter a product key instead.
  4. Input your 25-character activation key received via email.
  5. Visio will automatically connect to Microsoft servers and activate your license online.

Important: Do not sign in before entering your product key. If you sign in first, the option to manually enter a key may not appear, which can delay your activation process.
