    You can add the MathType Tab to MS Word 2016:

    1. Launch Microsoft Word.
    2. From the File tab choose Options.
    3. In the resulting window, from the left-side navigation menu choose Add-ins.
    4. Using the drop-down menu located at the bottom of the window, choose Word Add-ins and click the button labeled, "Go".
    5. In the resulting window, under Global Templates and add-ins you should add the Mathtype plugin
    6. Navigate to the MathType directory in your Programs folder and select (probably will be here C:\Program Files (x86)\MathType\Office Support\32) (I have office x86, if you have office 64 than choose the 64 directory
    7. Select "MathType Commands 6 For Word 2013", ok and close the add in tab in word.

    You should see the mathtype tab.

    Enjoy

    Please don't expect comments from Microsoft in this forum. It is user-to-user. Other users are invited to add their comments. Once in a while someone from Microsoft responds, but it is unusual

    I inquired of Design Science on July 9, and the response was not promising.  Here is an excerpt from them:  

    "At this time, we don’t have a time frame for MathType integration into Office 2016. There are some hurdles that need to be passed before we can make it happen, and we are in communication with Microsoft about them. In truth, it’s not likely that full compatibility will be achieved soon, and that it’s still some time away."

    L.B.

    Hello,

    I am a Program manager on CXE the Team that owns Math across Office. I will be forwarding this issue to someone who can better use the feedback to guide features, but I just wanted to acknowledge that I had seen your question let you know, we do actively look at these forums to understand user issues.

    Thanks,

    Theo
