Office 2016 and Office 2019 only .doc, .docx, .xls, and .xlsx

365 versions of Office (365 Apps) have it built in. Meaning only the 2016/2019 currently require the AIP UL add-in (which is being deprecated soon). https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/security-compliance-and-identity/sensitivity-labeling-now-built-into-office-apps-for-windows-to/ba-p/844506 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/purview/sensitivity-labels-office-apps#labeling-client-for-desktop-apps Office 2016 is out of mainstream support (meaning no new features/functions added) and wouldn't expect them to develop the integrated label handling since it's in security patching only mode. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/microsoft-office-2016 Would go with 2016 & 2019, however not sure how much longer this question will be around considering the add-in is being deprecated.

2nd answer looks correct. 1st answer I don't think is correct and here is why: The Windows Office add-in from the Azure Information Protection unified labeling client is now retired and no longer supported. It's replaced by sensitivity labels that are built into Office apps that support labeling. Because the add-in is no longer supported, the Office policy setting Use the Azure Information Protection add-in for sensitivity labeling must be set to Not configured (the default), or Disabled. If this setting is configured for Enabled, you won't be able to use sensitivity labeling in Office apps.

ChatGPT o3: Correct answers: Office versions that require an add-in to support the sensitivity labels: (Office 2016 and Office 2019 only) Office file types that support the sensitivity labels: .docx and .xlsx Explanation: Office 2016 and Office 2019 only require the AIP add-in because they are perpetual license versions. Built‑in sensitivity labelling is available only in subscription editions of Office (e.g., Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise) and in Office for the web. Microsoft’s own docs state that “sensitivity labels aren’t supported for standalone editions of Office, sometimes called Office Perpetual.” That covers the perpetual‑license Office 2016 and Office 2019 desktop apps, so they must rely on the (now‑retired) Azure Information Protection unified‑labelling add‑in .docx and .xlsx are the only formats that support built-in sensitivity labels. Legacy formats like .doc and .xls do not support them.

Office versions that require an add-in to support the sensitivity labels: Office 2016 and Office 2019 only Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise and Office for the web have built-in support for sensitivity labels. Office 2016 and Office 2019 require the Azure Information Protection (AIP) unified labeling client add-in for full label functionality. ✅ Office file types that support the sensitivity labels: .docx, .doc, .xlsx, and .xls Sensitivity labels support modern and legacy Office file formats. This includes: .docx and .xlsx (modern) .doc and .xls (legacy) Final Answer: Office versions that require an add-in: ✅ Office 2016 and Office 2019 only Office file types that support the sensitivity labels: ✅ .doc, .docx, .xls, and .xlsx ________________________________________________________
