Change Default Excel Settings

I ABHOR Aptos font.

What's more, I can't stand that it's in size 11...  why is all of this the default? 

 

I've been trying to figure out how to change the default Excel font settings so I don't have to keep toggling my preferences EVERY SINGLE CELL. All of the tutorials I've found have told me to go to "File - Options - General" But when I follow this flow, the "Options" only show me "Regional Settings" (to change my language preference) or "Reset changes pane". 

 

The only alternative is to change the "Sheet View", but this only applies to the current Sheet and needs to be recreated with every new sheet I make. 

 

I need directions on how to change the default font and size to my preference so every time I open an Excel spreadsheet, my preferences are the default.

    Obviously, you are working in Excel for the Web, whereas the tutorials you found all relate to the Windows desktop version. Can't find the default font setting in the web version either so I guess it's just one of the many differences between the two versions.
