Are you dissatisfied with the color scheme used in Microsoft 365 apps? Do you prefer the previous? Modify the colors!
In different versions of Office, a color scheme is used by default. This palette can change from one version to another and it completely changes the look of your documents.
It is possible to restore the original colors and/or change them all at once to match your tastes.
The color scheme is a component of the used and customizable Themes of the various Office applications.
Let‘s take a look at the following:
Change the color scheme
From the following squares, let‘s see how to change their colors in a few clicks.
Warning: If you send your file to another person, the color scheme configured on their computer will be used, the colors may not be the same.
In PowerPoint, on the Design menu, click the down arrow in the Variants section.
In the menu that appears, click Colors. Currently the selected one is Office 2013–2022.
Select another color set and you‘ll see the squares change color.

Each selected colour is available in different shades. Find your palette in the different menus: fill color, border color, etc.
