    How were you able to revert to the previous version?  I just came in one day and it was changed.   I don't see much in the way of a version or method to revert.   I appreciate the help!!!

    Yes, they did. But they did tell us it was intentional as opposed to a bug.

    That's all I'm after. Acknowledgement that the change was intended or that it's a bug? Clearly stated not implied.

    Then I can answer that for you: it was intentional.

    Folder browse capability in File > Save As: Use full folder navigation in File > Save As in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint for OneDrive folders, OneDrive for Business folders, and This PC.

    source: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/office/mt465751?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

    They intentionally changed the way SAVE AS window works. Why did they do that? Did they really think people would prefer this behavior of SAVE AS (already available by clicking "browse") instead of the useful recent/pinned folders? I have no idea - people do stupid things sometimes.

    Honestly, I hated this change so much that I went back to the previous version - and I will stay there until they fix this stupidity or something really great (like, REALLY great) comes up in a future version.
