Windows 10: can default settings for Office 365 programs be copied?

When my office computer needed to be rebuilt this week, Office 365's programs (Word, Excel, Outlook) were installed from scratch so I don't have ANY of my MANY defaults/personalizations/etc. but I still have access to my previous hard drive. Is there anywhere I can find something/somethings to copy to my new computer so that I don't need to spend time re-creating my defaults, etc.? I'm talking about file/options, etc. AND/OR my Quick Access Toolbar customizations.

By the way, our IT needed to rebuild my computer (give me a new hard-drive) this week due to recent updates so it isn't as if my previous hard-drive was corrupt or anything. It's been so very convenient ever since Office copied/kept all customizations when updating; but now I'm having to start from scratch ... not a happy camper here! Can anything help?

Windows Version 1903 (OS Build 18362.1016)

Cortana & Office 365 Integration

We are trying to integrate Cortana with our Office 365 subscription, but it never works. Here are the steps we have done:

• Turned on Cortona in the Office 365 Admin portal
• We are using Windows 10 1703 – connected Office 365 service to Cortana

Did the same on windows 10 mobile with no luck, Cortana says its connected to Office 365, but sees no data and we are getting zero errors

We went rough office 365 support first and tried all fo their suggestions, they kicked us over to Windows support which is currently closed.

We are on v1703 with all updates in place, it does not work on Windows 10 desktop or mobile

any ideas? I can give you all steps 365 support had us run through if that will be helpful

Thank you

Doug

 

Default Apps and Office 365 in Windows 10

Would someone from Microsoft actually type an answer to this problem, as it described? The lame suggestions given so far have not addressed the issue. Office 365 is installed, but when attempting to associate files with Office 365, there is not a choice given
to choose an Office 365 program.

What is a user to do to get an xlsx or docx file to open with Excel 2016 or Word 2016 when the "Choose default apps" in settings is not recognizing that Office 365 exists?

Default Apps and Office 365 in Windows 10

Hi,

Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

You can set defaults by program/app by clicking Set defaults by app. This will open the Set Default Programs Control Panel window.

Choose a program and click set this program as default to set the program as the default program for all file types and protocols it's capable of opening, or click Choose defaults for this program to pick individual file types and protocols from a list.

Or you can refer to the below link and check if it helps. (Also applies to Windows 10)
