To turn off Dark Mode in Microsoft Word, follow these steps:
- Open Microsoft Word.
- Click on the File tab in the top-left corner.
- From the sidebar, select Account.
- Under the Office Theme dropdown menu, choose White or Colorful to disable Dark Mode and switch back to a light theme.
- Close the menu, and Word will revert to the light mode interface.
Alternatively, on Mac, you can turn off Dark Mode by going to Word > Preferences > General > Personalize and selecting Turn off Dark Mode
. If you want to keep the interface in Dark Mode but have a white document page, you can toggle the page background color by going to the View tab and selecting Switch Modes to switch the page between dark and light backgrounds
. This method works for Microsoft Word on Windows, Mac, and Word for the web.
