Yes, we removed the word 'anonymous' from the message and provided a setting to allow the form owner to disable 'Save response'. The fix has been pushed to production.DingkunXie great thank you, so glad you have managed to get this changed.
RuoyingLThanks for your feedbacks. Form's production team has removed the "your response will remain anonymous to the form owner after you sign in to save the response" statement. You should be able to view the change very soon.Alan_Burris figured out somewhat of a runaround:
found an old form from before the change, share as template, made a new form and erased all previous questions/content and added new. No “your response will remain anonymous…” at end.
tedious, but better than waiting for the eventual change.
thanks for everyone’s comments and shared aggravation with nonsensical addition.
Alan_Burris Thanks! I'll give it a try. 😉
- Anxiously awaiting this answer. I would also like to remove this from a form before I launch it. Please advise. Thanks.
- Any update on being able to remove this? I will be collecting names/email so it is 100% inaccurate.
- DingkunXieI have shared these typical scenarios with the product team, and they are currently evaluating this case.
Hi DingkunXie
Please can you help explain what this line means? "Your response will remain anonymous to the form owner after you sign in to save the response" and why there is an option to 'Save the response'. I cannot find any information on the Microsoft website on this update and i need to understand the impact of this change.- What happens if someone doesn't click 'Save the response'? Is the form response still saved in the synced spreadsheet? It looks like it is when I tested but without knowing why this button exists, I can't be sure.
- After the form filler submits - if they click 'Save the response', and login, do they only get to see their response and no others?
I would appreciate your response as we are finding this change very disconcerting and it will have a major implication if we can no longer MS Forms. Thanks in advance
I've just noticed this update too and it's really annoying! I need to set the settings to 'anyone can respond' as i'm sharing with people outside of the business, however it wont be anonymous as i'm capturing name/email etc in the form, so this quote is completely irrelevant for me.
Any ideas on how we remove it?

Hi Sophietc
This concern has been received by the product team, and they are considering adding a setting to allow the form owner to disable that experience.
- Any ETA on this? I'm also very intererested in this issue as it is preventing us from using the form.
