2007 & 2010 ❤ I love the idea of Outlook being yellow! Weird that now it's blue just like Word is! Also, they're so pretty!

[@dinakadhim4570]

And 2000 and 2003

[@billgate803]

now my favorite is Outlook

[@NotteShock]

For me the icons set of Office 2007 looks a bit better than the later Office 2010, the icons of PowerPoint and Outlook in Office 2000 looks like it will fit in Windows 8 Metro design with some minor adjustments, the icons of Office 2013 is a bit of a downgrade and the current icons from Office 2019 looks good and vibrant

[@legoflashgamer]

I'm still using office 97, with Clippy!

@ Clippy is back as an emoji in Windows 11.

Why tho lol

[@UltraGamerYT79]

Which OS?

[@legoflashgamer]

@@UltraGamerYT79 Windows 10, I know there are many newer versions that I can use, but I just want to see Clippy 😁

[@UltraGamerYT79]

@@legoflashgamer wow! A 1997 program on Windows 10 is very cool and interesting

[@erlgr]

I've never noticed the "XL" in the Excel icons! That's amazing

[@Wind2000channel]

In general, it is brilliant that the abbreviation reads the same as the full official name

[@cycrothelargeplanet]

Now I can't unsee it, thank you.

[@phuongduybui5392]

2019 office icons have that fluent material design, like it.

[@Kiki79250CoC]

And those icons have been backported into Office 2016.

[@Kiki79250CoC]

@@half-dusted In 2019 MS backported the new Office 2019 icons into Office 2016. And I have them rn.

I'm sick of material design but I'm sure I'm gonna miss it in ten years

[@Mr.M.R]

@@Solaceon Yeah, I think you could be right. I agree with you 💯 I think imma downgrade to Windows 10 again 'cause of that round design. I can't look at it anymore.

[@fernandomeliani]

It took me 21 years to realize that the “X” in Excel actually had an “L” in the icon.

[@kami-kun_va]

I didn't notice that either til now!

[@skyflyhigh]

I like the Office 2010 and 2019 icons!

[@huntingafterthegrave493]

i LOVE THE IDEA OF THIS MARTIN GOOD JOB

[@TazerXI]

My personal preference is 2010 and 2013. All the icons are thematically consistent, and make sense for the icon. Other years have slightly different icons for PowerPoint. It is the only one that didn't seem to get a letter for a while, and in other years it has a different shape to the others.

[@abetheiii04]

Why did Outlook change its color from yellow to blue in Office 2013 and later? Its color is quite similar to Word.

[@SariRomero-wo6sz]

True. They could have at least made it more cyan

[@Dabingu]

The icons of 2000 were ahead of their time

[@theataripunk]

the music: "YEAH LET'S PARTYY!!" the video: *literally just office icons*

[@ordman_lux]

2016 and 2019 is like 'please don't turn me into an oversimplified logo'

[@magbanuamik_]

[@topcomp1066]

Funny how PowerPoint didn't include the P in their logo till 2010

[@2003BlueRay]

For me I think Office 2010 has the most beautiful icons

[@rungxanh2901]

Almost 20 years later, and the 2003 icons still rock! 💯

Microsoft always trys (and always does) make 3D icons

[@janjan04tumirangtrespan3s]

i'm still using microsoft word 2007 until today

[@windestruct]

I think that 2010 icons are the best, because they show what the program is used for, they have identical shapes and are easily distinguishable

[@InternetExplorer716]

i like the video can you do the Microsoft Office Mac icon evolution they are different

[@atomixmidion]

can you do evolution of office programs interfaces next?

[@chocolatechipcookie1541]

I really wish that these icons are designed well in the future.

[@rainzeros8393]

2003, 2007 and 2013 were the most memorable versions. My family had physical versions of all 3

[@_lennard_lp]

Without this video, I'd say the 2000 icons are newer than the of 2003

[@birunicorp]

0:46 looks like something from metro UI

[@zoutepindas6128]

Nah, the other way around. Metro UI looks like it has the graphical limitations from 22 years ago. The icons from Office 2013 and later look like ass

[@birunicorp]

@@zoutepindas6128 what i mean by that is that the 2000 logos look like cartoony flat things, thats what metro is. the office 2013 look a lot better then that

[@zoutepindas6128]

[@s1_auds]

2010 has the best icons and 2007 obviously

[@aymenballage2743]

You're the best

[@8.1DEV]

Once I had 2007 when I first got my own laptop which used to run Windows 8.1 otherwise I either use libreoffice or Microsoft 365 for work or schools.

[@Wald4267]

[@bang1338]

some theory/easter egg: Word, Excel, PowerPoint is WXP which mean it's Windows XP

[@pyeltd.5457]

Windows XPP

[@khoi34145]

Microsoft Office 4.2 or older is free, however, starting with Microsoft Office 95, Microsoft Office is no longer free.

Anything is free if you know how to do it ;)

[@nerovanguard846]

What the hell happened to Outlook? It has a distinct icon with a distinguishable yellow theme. But now it's almost the same as Word

2010 is my favorite personally

[@ChaseMC215]

My birthday present.

[@American_Mappin]

2003-2010 icons look awesome! But the ones after are trash. By the way 2010 is my favorite.

[@SoukupSoft]

Some of the icons seem to be a bit upscaled. Why?

[@_IceCreamBunny_]

isn't there also access, onenote, publisher, and honorable mention: sway?

[@fransflop]

Not gonna lie, the 1994 PowerPoint kinda looks cartoony and cute!

they probably have the same icons as Office 2000

2000 looks it can still be used today

[@vornamenachname9331]

2019 standalone has the same icons as 2016. The icons for 2019 in this video are only available for 2021 standalone

[@jgadventure]

nah 2019 received the new office icons via an update

[@vornamenachname9331]

@@jgadventure Standalone versions don't get feature updates. You are speaking of the Office 365 (or Microsoft 365) subscription versions. They get feature and design updates. But for standalone the icons stay as they were at product launch. Also this video claims to show icon evolution, but it completely left out the 2016 version.

[@jgadventure]

@@vornamenachname9331 because the 2016 version had the same icons as 2013. There is barely a difference. And Office 2019 is only available in Click-To-Run, so it receives patches but not monthly feature updates unlike Office 365.

[@vornamenachname9331]

@@jgadventure Dude. Every Office including 2021 is available at least as one payment standalone version for home customers. [Edit] Also the information that some office version have the same icons is as important as the different icons. So if this video wanted to show the complete evolution it would have respected even the slightest design changes instead of showing wrong information and ignoring parts of history (even if it's the trivial icon evolution of some company).

Word 2000's icon still exists in Office 2013 and later versions. It will be the icon of files ending in .doc Perhaps the icon of Word 2000 is suitable for the metro design of Office 2013 and above. July 21, 2022 10:41PM

it's probably because you have an MSI version Office 2016, which, still uses the old icons. You could have installed the Click-To-Run office then typed your key.
