How to Turn On/Off Compatibility Mode in Microsoft Word

New features are added to each release, making it hard for documents to remain compatible with older versions. Thankfully, Microsoft has a workaround—compatibility mode.

Unfortunately, compatibility mode can cause problems, especially if you’re trying to edit older documents in a newer version of Word. If you’re unsure how, here’s how to get out of compatibility mode in Word.

If you work with colleagues that use different versions of Microsoft Word, its compatibility mode ensures that all of you are virtually on the same page. The feature ensures that documents created with the newer versions of Microsoft Office Word are compatible with old releases. However, if you have little use for this mode, it makes sense to disable it completely. See how to disable the Compatibility Mode in Word!

If you try to open an older version of a MS Word document with the .doc file extension, you might get a message that your file is in compatibility mode. What does this mean?

It means your doc was saved in an older version of Word, typically Word 97-2003, and because of that some features in the newer version of Word may not work. There’s nothing wrong with your file. It still works fine but some features will not work unless you update the file.

This tutorial will apply for Microsoft Word 2021, 2019, 2013, and 2010 for both Windows (such as Dell, HP, Lenovo, Samsung, Toshiba, Acer, Asus) and macOS (MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, MacBook Mini) devices.
