[QUOTE="honestone, post: 1734624, member: 333401"] I recently installed Office 2016 (V15.27), and everything seems to be working fine. I was not concerned with Word and Excel, but I needed to insure that Outlook 2016 would function just like Outlook 2011. When I first booted up Outlook 2016, it offered to "import" all the Outlook 2011 stuff. I of course selected Yes, the import went without a hitch, and Outlook 2016 is working solidly. All of this is true for both of my machines. I am, though, still using the latest version of El Capitan, OS 10.11.6, waiting for the upgrade to TechTool Pro for Sierra compatibility before I "move" to OS 10.12.1. I am not anticipating any issues with Office 2016 and OS 10.12.1 (at least from what I have read). I have a handy little application called "AppCleaner" that lets one "drop" an application icon onto AppCleaner's spot (after launching it), and AppCleaner finds just about all the files associated with the application. I am just about ready to do this with Office 2011, but I need to insure that Office 2016 does not need any files associated with Office 2011. When 1Password was upgraded to V6.0, I tried to do that with prior versions of 1Password "stuff", but I had issues doing that. So, I am of course a little reluctant to do the same with Office 2011. Hence, I am wondering if anyone here "upgraded" from Office 2011 to Office 2016 like I did (ie, installing Office 2016, and especially the part involving Outlook 2016), and then safely removed all "stuff" associated with Office 2011. Disk space is not the issue, as I have enough, but I hate to have any unneeded stuff around. I would appreciate any advice/information/suggestions, etc. I of course still have a backup containing everything now, and in fact I will run through my disk cleanup/maintenance/repairs, and backups, tomorrow for both of my Macs. But, if I can remove Office 2011 after doing those tasks, that would be good. [/QUOTE]
