- Word 2010, like the rest of Microsoft's Office 2010 programs, uses by default the "Silver" color theme - "Blue" is the closest to Word 2007, and "Black" is an original and acquired taste.
- To change theme, click on the "File" button (top left), and choose "Options".
- If needed, select "General" on the left.
- Pick your choice from the "Color scheme" dropdown menu, and click "OK" to apply.
- Here's a preview of each scheme, respectively Black, Silver, and Blue: in our experience, there is no difference in loading time or performance between each of these themes.
Tip: unfortunately, applying a new color scheme in Word affects all Office 2010 applications: you can't have Word use the blue theme and Excel use the silver one, for example.
