Office: Where is InfoPath?

Office: Where is InfoPath?

February 27, 2023 by Mitch Bartlett 3 Comments

Users who have upgraded to a newer version of Microsoft Office may have an unwelcome surprise when they go to open their InfoPath files. Installing versions of Microsoft Office newer than Office 2013 will remove InfoPath, leaving users unable to open files with an .XSN extension.

There is a way for you to get Infopath back though. Just download InfoPath from Microsoft’s download site and install it to your system. It will work just fine with your new Office install.

If you’re expecting future upgrades for Infopath, you will be disappointed. InfoPath 2013 will be the last version of the application. However, Microsoft will continue to support the 2013 version through the year 2026.

    This is perhaps dated, but I did notice tonight that on the 2016 Office Pro Plus iso from the VLK site did contain a folder called InfoPath.en-us. It contains several files along with the InfoPath.msi. I’m not sure how to load it using the xml that’s there, but it is in there. What function is this intended to work with, if not 2016 office?

    Just tested it, and it works OK on my Windows 10 machine.

    Perhaps it’s just me, but the download sits and spins. Do you know of any issue with Windows 10? The Windows 10 OS is not listed in the system requirements, but was hoping they hadn’t added it by mistake. Do you know of any fix or download for Windows 10 and InfoPath 2013 with Office 365 Pro Plus 2016?
