Microsoft Word Product Manager Ali Forelli, however, explained the situation. If you want to try out the new Edge, follow the steps below. And given that Word has been around for nearly four decades, it makes everyone wonder why the Redmond-based company is only now introducing it. In addition to Chat and Compose within the Sidebar, the new Microsoft Edge has a fresh look that should fit better on Windows 11. This fact that the feature is available in other apps makes the option a long time coming for Word for Windows and Mac. For those with access to the capability, it can be run using the familiar Ctrl + Shift + V shortcut, which is also used in other apps, such as Google Docs, Microsoft Teams, Word for the Web, Gmail, Slack and more. With both a Microsoft to do desktop app and mobile app available, it is easy to stay on task all day long. The app is ideal for making lists of your chores, groceries, or study topics.

However, it is important to note that the capability is still limited to users of M365 Home and M365 Business Standard beta channels using Windows version 1.20174 or higher and Mac version. Microsoft To-Do is a free application that helps you manage your daily tasks and projects.

Microsoft is now introducing the “Paste text only” option as a Word keyboard shortcut for Windows and Mac, making it easier to paste text without having to manually remove unwanted formatting.According to Microsoft, the feature will implement the conventional keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + V (Cmd + Shift + V on Mac).
