While many troubleshooting steps for Error 147-0 are universal, there are minor differences between Office 365 (subscription-based) and perpetual license versions. For Office 365, ensuring your subscription is active and logged in with the correct Microsoft account is crucial. Activation issues related to your subscription status can indirectly contribute to installation/update failures. For perpetual licenses, ensure your product key is valid and entered correctly during activation, and that it hasn't exceeded its installation limits on other devices.
