Microsoft Project 2024 Professional

This guide shows you exactly how to download Project 2024 Professional, install it on Windows, and activate it with your product key — step by step.

Microsoft Project 2024 Professional is a one-time purchase (perpetual licence) that installs the full desktop version of Project 2024 on your PC, with no Microsoft 365 subscription. If you don’t have a licence yet, you can get a genuine lifetime microsoft project 2024 professional key from Kymakers below.

Project 2024 Professional system requirements

What you need before you start

• Your 25-character Project 2024 product key from Kymakers (sent to your email after purchase).
• A Windows 10 or 11 PC with administrator access.
• A stable internet connection.

Step 1 — Download Project 2024 Professional

The fastest way is our one-click installer, which starts downloading automatically:

Prefer the official Microsoft route? Use the Office Deployment Tool (ODT) method below instead — both install the same genuine Project 2024.

Alternative: Office Deployment Tool

1. Download the Office Deployment Tool from Microsoft: search “Office Deployment Tool” on the Microsoft Download Center and run the self-extractor to a folder such as C:\ODT.
2. In that folder create a text file named configuration.xml with the following content:

<Configuration>
  <Add OfficeClientEdition="64" Channel="PerpetualVL2024">
    <Product ID="ProjectPro2024Retail">
      <Language ID="en-us" />
    </Product>
  </Add>
  <Display Level="Full" AcceptEULA="TRUE" />
</Configuration>

Step 2 — Install Project 2024

1. Open Command Prompt as Administrator and change to your ODT folder: cd C:\ODT
2. Download the install files: setup.exe /download configuration.xml
3. Install Project: setup.exe /configure configuration.xml
4. The installer runs and adds Project 2024 to your Start menu. If you used the one-click image above instead, just double-click it and follow the prompts.

Step 3 — Activate with your product key

1. Open Project 2024 from the Start menu.
2. Go to File → Account (in Project, this is under the account/Office menu).
3. Under Product Information click Change Product Key.
4. Type your 25-character product key and click Activate. Project contacts Microsoft and activates for life.

Prefer the command line? Open Command Prompt as Administrator and run (adjust the path for your Office version):

cd "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office16"
cscript ospp.vbs /inpkey:YOUR-25-CHAR-KEY
cscript ospp.vbs /act

Troubleshooting

“The product key you entered can’t be used to activate Project”

Make sure you installed the correct edition (the configuration above installs the 2024 perpetual version) and typed the key exactly. If it still fails, contact Kymakers 24/7 support for a check or replacement.

Setup says another version is installed

Project 2024 (perpetual) can conflict with a Microsoft 365 install. Remove the Microsoft 365/Click-to-Run version first from Settings → Apps, then re-run the install.

The one-click download won’t open

Right-click the downloaded file and choose Mount (for an image) or Run as administrator. If your browser blocked it, allow the download and try again.
