Hello, I'm trying to install Office Online Server on my Windows Server 2019.The installation itself goes smoothly, but I encounter an issue when deploying the Office Online Server farm. When I run the command:

New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalURL "http://myserver" -AllowHttp -EditingEnabled

PowerShell returns an error stating that the Ink and Handwriting Services feature is missing.I understand, but where can I find this feature?I've seen that it's no longer available on Windows Server 2019. Is there a solution?

    Hi @Thomas Dos Santos

    Sorry, we can't install the Ink and Handwriting Services feature that no longer exist on Windows Server 2019.

    Please note, Windows Server 2019 requires Office Online Server July 2021 patch or later.

    Thanks for your understanding.

    When I try to upgrade my office online server with (KB5001973) it tells me that I don't have the required version of OOS, is there any specific OOS for W19S ?
