New Office design toggle is disabled
- Jun 29, 2021Currently Version 2107 Build 14228.20000 hasn't been released yet. You will need to wait until that build is installed, then you'll start seeing all the new updates. At this time, we don't have a specific date/time to share for when the update will be released.
I FOUND IT!!!!!!!!!!
(you can't switch the toggle on BUT you can get the effects of it)
You can force it to show the new UI, with the registry

Download this file, open it, click yes, start any Office 365 Apps that support it (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote)
Now you should have the new UI!
(as a warning it might take a long time to disable this once you enable it, as you have to go to registry, Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\ExperimentConfigs\ExternalFeatureOverrides go to this folder, click every office app name, and delete the strings that start with Microsoft.Office.UXPlatform... on ALL OF THEM)
I think the new splash screen is kinda bad, but I suppose they will change it later. Some of the buttons are too skinny too (Like the search button)
