Seems you installed Office in Click-to-Run way, unfortunately it's not possible to select what you want to install by default
But you can try changing installation config to achieve this
As the answer in this post in Office Tech, you can add something like below in xml config to skip applications you don't want
<ExcludeApp ID= "Access" />
If you want only Word, then exclude all but Word in config like
<Configuration>
<Add OfficeClientEdition="64" >
<Product ID="ProPlusRetail">
<Language ID="en-us"/>
<ExcludeApp ID= "Access" />
<ExcludeApp ID= "Lync" />
<ExcludeApp ID= "Outlook" />
<ExcludeApp ID= "OneDrive" />
<ExcludeApp ID= "OneNote" />
<ExcludeApp ID= "Groove" />
<ExcludeApp ID= "Publisher" />
<ExcludeApp ID= "SharePointDesigner" />
<ExcludeApp ID= "PowerPoint" />
<ExcludeApp ID= "Excel" />
<ExcludeApp ID= "Visio" />
</Product>
</Add>
</Configuration>
After editing, save and run installer

Is it the
preview
? – h0ch5tr4355 – 2015-09-25T07:53:34.700No. It's the full version – Steve – 2015-09-25T07:54:33.197
I just know, that it wasn't possible in the preview, but I think it should be possible in the full version. So it was in the earlier versions: When you have an installer, you could choose
customize
. – h0ch5tr4355 – 2015-09-25T08:06:05.6931There is NO way if you are running a Click-To-Run version – pun – 2015-09-25T08:07:03.217
@h0ch5tr4355 - It isn't possible; Alright it is possible it involves a hacked together solution; The Office installer was changed with Office 2016. – Ramhound – 2015-09-25T10:38:13.877
That's a pity, but the programs are linked so closely that it probably became impossible for Microsoft to separate them strictly. – h0ch5tr4355 – 2015-09-25T10:41:16.650
Can you show me the hacked solution? – Steve – 2015-09-25T16:46:54.513
@The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like Is there another way to install it? – Steve – 2015-09-25T16:51:13.183
@Jessica I haven't found a hacked way yet & seems quite difficult to do that as everything is streamed in this method of installation. It would have been possible if there was a MSI version but i haven't seen that either – pun – 2015-09-26T07:01:03.440
