MC638127 – Updated September 12, 2023: Microsoft has updated the content to show as intended. Thank you for your patience.
The new look of Microsoft 365 apps introduced alongside Windows 11 in June 2021 will become the default look for Windows 11 Subscription and Perpetual 2021 users.
When this will happen:
Preview: Available Now
Standard Release: Microsoft will begin rolling mid-August 2023 (previously late July) and expect to complete by late September 2023 (previously late August).
