Hi, I just updated to Word 15.34, and found that track change doesn't seem to display timestamp in track changes any more. Previously, if I mouse over an insertion, it will show the date and time of that insertion. Now when I mouse over, it doesn't show anything. For example, if I mouse over the "and" in the attached screenshot, I don't get the timestamp anymore, and it was there a couple days before. Am I missing some obvious settings, or did they get rid of it in this version?
I need the timestamp to see which comments are new and which are old.
I am moving this Topic to the insider forum since the revision mention is a Fastrack based version.

Hi Jim and all, I found a setting that solved my problem:
go to Preferences —> View —> check “Comments on rollover" box
Apparently somehow, an update unchecked that box.
Hi Jennifer,
Since you are using Word 2016 for Mac 15.34 and it is an Insider Fast version, I suggest you post on the Office/Office Insider/Mac/Word category for expert help.
Thanks,
Cliff

You should see the date and time of the change when you move the cursor over the change
