In the Word title bar where the filename is shown, Word has stopped saying if the file is "saved"
In the Word title bar where the filename is shown, Office 365 Word has very recently stopped saying if the file is "saved" or "saved to pc". This feature seems to still exist in Excel.- see screenshots.
.
This is a very useful feature.
In the version 2408 release notes for August 26 (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/officeupdates/current-channel#word) it says "We fixed an issue where a document displayed as saved instead of working offline." I wonder if this "fix" is the culprit!
Please can we have the information in the title bar about whether the file is saved or not back.
Thanks
You are correct. This is no longer there.
It may be returned in a future release.
- Thanks Charles. Real shame if this is gone for good. Hope they do get it working again. And thanks for the link to how to directly feedback re Office 365. I have done so, but not sure how long it will take for them to get to actually reading what I had to say. Are you aware of if they take any notice of direct app feedback? Certainly no sign of anything so far in my case..
DavidL1000 Do you still have this issue.
With Off-line documents, they show as "Saved to this PC" in Version 2408 (Build 17928.20156 Click-to-Run) Current Channel.
If not, try restarting your computer and then Word as Microsoft sometimes release fixes that are installed "on the fly".
- Pleased to say that the "saved" and "saved to pc" are now back and operational is Word, despite no change to version no. Odd, but very welcome
