Hi Molly,

You are on fresh build for regular users, issued on Sep 18 - https://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/mt465751

Build 1709.8528.2084 is for Office Insiders (Slow Ring or Monthly Channel) rolled out on Sep 26 - https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Update-history-for-Office-Insider-for-Windows-desktop-64bbb317-972a-4933-8b82-cc866f0b067c?ui=en-US&rs=en-ZA&ad=ZA#InsiderLevel=Insider

Thus you have to shift on insiders builds or wait another 2-3 weeks.
