Turning a drop down menu list for saving into a full screen pop up is just so bizarrely user-hostile.

  I verbally exclaimed WTF the first time I saw that. How did anyone think that ridiculous distraction is an improvement? Doubly so when the name of the file you want to open next is in the current one --- and helpfully covered up by that abomination.

  It's hostile to users like us that can deal with a lot of data at the same time. But many people when they see "old style" UIs get overwhelmed by the mass of information and data, and having that information subdivided helps people. Sadly, they are the majority and we are the minority, so UIs get designed for them and not for us. Nowadays computing systems are being used by the 99% so they are also designed for the 99%.

    Has anyone tested this? Is Office(CurrentYear) easier to use than 1997?

      Current office is mess. To "Save As..." you need 4 clicks just to open the god damn save dialogue.

        Not in front of a computer rn, but f12 should bring up the save as dialogue box (unless hijacked by another program).
