Windows 10: Excel 2016 Start Screen

newseed · Jul 1, 2020

I am running the very latest version of Windows 10 and Office 2016.
I haven't used Excel in a long time until just a few days ago. I was following some instructions about the Excel Startup Screen. The instructions I found online shows a completely different Startup Screen layout versus the one I have. I definitely have Excel 2016 and the instructions are for the same version. Can anyone shed any light on this as to why mine is different and how I might be able to change it to match the instructions I see online? Attached is my version of the Start Up screen.
Thank you.

:)

"Excel 2016" App icon still in app list after uninstalling

Hi Averen,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Apologize for the difficulties that you're experiencing with Windows 10. Do not worry. We'll be glad to help you in resolving this issue.

What happens when you click on the Excel 2016 App icon?

Try Removing Apps From The All Apps List by following the below steps.

Step 1: Right-click on Excel 2016 from All Apps List > Click on
More > Open file location.

Step 2: After clicking Open file location, a new File Explorer window will appear showing you the application shortcut, so you may want to delete that shortcut,
restart the computer once, and check for the issue.

Alternatively, you may also press the Windows and R keys > Type or copy/paste the following command and hit
Enter.

%appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs

Then, look for Excel 2016 shortcut and delete it. Once deleted, restart the computer once, and check for the issue.

If you are still facing the same issue, I would suggest you to post a Screenshot
of the Apps list, where you are seeing the Excel shortcut.

Give it a shot and let us know of any changes.

Jump Lists Not working for Word 2016 or Excel 2016

Hi there

what's your Office 2016 version release

Mine is :

Not quite sure what you want to do -- drop downs etc in EXCEL seem OK and the "Recent documents" in EXCEL gives you a decent number of your recently accessed files.

For example :

New feature updates for Power Pivot in Excel 2016

We are pleased to announce new feature updates to Power Pivot for Excel 2016 as part of your Office 365 subscription. These updates include the ability to save a relationship diagram view as a picture and enhancements to the relationship dialog experience. We also fixed a number of important bugs to improve your overall modeling user experience.

Save relationship diagram view as picture

Excel 2016 users can now save the data model diagram view as a high resolution image file that can then be used for sharing, printing or analyzing the data model. To create the image file, in the Power Pivot add-in, click File and then select Save View as Picture.

Enhanced Edit Relationship dialog creates faster and more accurate data relationships

Excel 2016 Power Pivot users can now manually add or edit a table relationship while exploring a sample of the data—up to five rows of data in a selected table. This helps create faster and more accurate relationships without the need to go back and forth to the data view every time you wish to create or edit a table relationship.

We have also added several usability goodies to the Edit Relationship dialog:

Table selection using keyboard navigation—Type the first letter of a table name to move the first column name starting with the selected letter.

Column selection using column navigation—Type the first letter of a column name to move the first column starting with the selected letter. Retype the same letter moves to the next column starting with the selected letter.

Auto column suggestion for same column name in both tables—After selecting the first table and column, on the selection of the second table, if a column with the same name exists, it is auto-selected (works both ways).

Fixes that improve your overall modeling user experience

We made a few fixes that improve your modeling user experience, including:

Power Pivot data model is no longer lost when working with hidden workbooks.

Ability to upgrade an Excel 2010 workbook with a data model to Excel 2016 is now available.

Ability to add a calculated column in Power Pivot, unless it contains a formula, is now available.

For a full list in this customer update, visit Power Pivot and the Analysis Services Engine in Excel 2016 fixes.

For all Excel 2016 users, get the latest customer update by installing the following updates. Note, there are 32- and 64-bit versions of each, so be sure to download the right version:

KB3114374—Office 2016 Excel update from December 8, 2015.

KB3114297—Office 2016 Power Pivot in Excel from December 8, 2015.

Try them yourself!
