I work in Excel and frequently need to move windows around my dual-monitor desktop. But the title bar is so loaded with stuff that Microsoft thinks I need (which I don't) that I am forced to make my windows wide so that there will be an unused area of the title that I can grab and move the window. I know there are altenative ways to move a window, but why should users be forced to use more complicated method?
Does MS Office have options that will allow me to configure the title bar so it looks like a "normal" window?
MS Office 365, Windows 10

@perkin_warbeck Under File, Options, Customise Ribbon you can deselect ribbon tabs you don't need/want to see. Or within an individual Tab you can remove groups of commands.
Press Reset to to undo all customisations.

@perkin_warbeck Did you find a solution? I have the exact same question for the exact same motives.

@Kohaku No, I am still struggling with it. A narrow Excel workbook can simply not be moved without first enlarging it. I guess Microsoft expects us to be working in fullscreen mode.

@perkin_warbeck @Kohaku The workaround I've found: Everything here with yellow beneath it will let you click/drag. That's everything from file name through user icon.
If I shrink it down to the minimum size & still have something to drag, I end up with something like this:
If you're going narrower than that, I don't think there's an option, or not one I've found.
