In Word for Mac, I don't see a File tab to the left of the Home tab

I was looking for how to do something in Word and the Youtube videos describe selecting the File tab which their video shows to be left of the Home tab, but my Word has Home as the first tab with nothing to the left of it.  I've installed the latest MS Word but still no File tab.

 

I'd love to learn how to retrieve it but also why did it ever disappear? 

 

Thanks in advance.

Brian

    That is because there is not a File tab in Word for the Mac.
    That is really not a "tab" but a button.
    Most of the functions for that are under the Word menu (which the Windows version does not have).
