You can configure the desktop version of Word to paste text without the source formatting. In this guide, we show you how.
On Windows 10, when using the Microsoft Word app, pasting content from a web browser, another document, or any other program will include the text along with the source formatting, whether you use the "Paste" option from the "Home" tab or the "Ctrl + V" keyboard shortcut.
Although you can always right-click to open the context menu and select the "Keep Text Only" option to perform a clean paste without formatting, these are additional steps you probably won't remember every time you copy content from the web or another app.
