The different versions of Microsoft Excel

Since the first Excel, Excel 1.0 for Apple Macintosh, in 1985, there have been over 25 versions of Excel by Microsoft, but 99% of Excel users today are spread across the following versions:

  • Excel 365, which is a subscription-based version with constantly updated features and can be referred to as the most recent version.
  • Excel 2021, which came out in October 2021, is the most recent non-subscription-based version of Excel. Unlike the subscription-based Excel 365, it only gets security updates after its initial release, while Excel 365 gets additional monthly features.
  • Excel 2019, which came out in October 2019.
  • Excel 2016, which was released in September 2015.
  • Excel 2010, which was released in June 2010.
  • Excel 2007, which was released in November 2006.

To know what version of Excel you are on, go to File, Account, and in the upper right section, you will see your Excel version. See Figure 1.3 to Figure 1.5...
