  • No side effects: The original text remains in place and only the display style changes.

Tips While Using

  1. Select the cell content or text that already has strikethrough.
  2. Click the Home tab.
  3. Click the Strikethrough button again, or open the Font tab and clear the Strikethrough option.

  • Next actions: You can continue with other font formatting or save the file.
  • No side effects: The text itself is not deleted.

Tips While Using

  • Common mistakes: If only part of the text is selected, only that selected part will have strikethrough removed.
  • Environment limits: In collaboration scenarios, other collaborators will see the change after sync completes.
