    For 32-bit version of Office 2016 on Windows 11, this worked for me.

    & “C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE16\Oarpmany.exe” /removereleaseinpatch “{90160000-002A-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE}” “{9C029E7A-4A4A-409D-B5C6-F40BAA71A090}” ‘1036’ “0”

    If that doesn't work, regedit, search 5002914 and you'll find office GUID and patch GUID.

    Plug them into this format and you'll be good to go:

    "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE15\Oarpmany.exe" /removereleaseinpatch "{Office_GUID}" "{Patch_GUID}" "1033" "0"

    God Bless.
