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:
- Download the ISO file from the email link you received after purchase.
- Right-click the file and select Mount to open the virtual disk.
- Navigate to the Office folder inside the mounted drive.
- Run setup64.exe.
- Let the installation process complete. The installer may display “Getting your Office” — this is expected and normal.
For 32-bit Installation:
- Follow the same steps to download and mount the ISO file.
- Open the mounted folder and go to the Office subfolder.
- Run setup32.exe.
- 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:
- Launch Microsoft Visio.
- Click Sign In, but do not complete the sign-in process at this stage.
- On the following screen, choose Enter a product key instead.
- Input your 25-character activation key received via email.
- 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.
