Office 2019

Yes...OK...comment out every other app you do not want to install.
if testing this should lead the way. -
Currently it looks like this;
<Configuration> <Add OfficeClientEdition="64" Channel="Monthly"> <Product ID="O365BusinessRetail"> <Language ID="en-us" /> </Product> <!-- <Updates Enabled="TRUE" Channel="Monthly" /> --> <!-- <Display Level="None" AcceptEULA="TRUE" /> --> <!-- <Property Name="AUTOACTIVATE" Value="1" /> --> </Configuration>
Do I just edit the Product ID= and the OfficeCientEdition?

I think you will have to create your own XML file.
Use this to help--note the section on "which apps to install"

@Ronnie-Wong Sorry but still not too sure where the Click to Run option will be so it doesn't install but run only?
-
You will have to be licensed for the click to run version. So check with the Volume License center for your office 2019 version.

Nothing really for creating a portable version. The ones on the list just install directly.

This goes back to purpose again. Your reported goal was for testing, I didn't know what your end goal was--portability.
You may have to go 3rd party like. But not a recommendation. : https://thehouseofportable.com/2459/microsoft-office-2019-portable/

@Ronnie-Wong It's still for testing but will be used as if it's portable. Because currently everything I've tried just installs the full version on the PC and just not run only.

Any Ideas on this?

If you've exhausted all the documentable ways. It usually means you will not be able to do something. Or if you do, it may cause unintended and unsupportable results from Microsoft. My recommendation is that you do not try to do this if any of the options previously mentioned do not work to provide you with your intended result.
