Question

I am using Word 2016 and want to use the design formats.  All the instructions I've read indicate that this version of Word does in fact have them, but when I view the design tab there's only one.  How do I get all the designs that are supposed to be there?

Answer 1

What shows up in that panel are Quick Style Sets. The repair should restore them. If not, please write back.

Answer 2

When you trid the Office repair, did you make sure to do an online repair?

By the way, are you running Office on a company network? In that case, you may be prevented from using certain features.

Hi BAdkins,

Let's start by applying a repair to the tool as the first solution because I have verified in my Word and I don't have that problem, perform this process by following these steps

I hope the steps work for you, I will add new options if necessary.

The repair didn't work.  Is there anything else I can try?

Just did the repair, but it did not work.  There are still no format options showing up under the Design tab.
