Enable dark mode in Office 2013, 2016 and 2019

One of the current trends is the use of dark themes which create a visual impact that cannot go unnoticed and also provides a level of visual health to millions of users as it reduces the impact that blue rays have on vision . Operating systems such as Windows 10, macOS Mojave , etc., are implementing the dark mode, also known as Dark theme , in their base systems and many developers have not lagged behind and therefore have implemented this mode either stably or trial in your applications

Undoubtedly, one of the most used office suites in the world the Office for its versatility and functionality and therefore TechnoWikis today will explain how to activate this dark mode in Office 365, Office 2013, Office 2016 and Office 2019 for any version of Windows, including Windows 7, 8 or 10 but not for Office on macOS, in addition, Office 2019 is only compatible with Windows 10..

Enable dark mode in Office 2013, 2016 and 2019

Another way we can edit the Office theme is from the suite options directly, for this we click on the "Options" section and in the window we will go to the "General" category and there, in the section "Customize copy From Microsoft Office ”we can select the new theme in the“ Office theme ”field. It will also be possible to edit the background from the Office background field. Once we make these changes, click on the Accept button and this process applies to Office 2013, 2016 and 2019 equally. image

With this simple method it will be possible to set the dark theme in Microsoft Office.
