Question

I am using SharePoint online on office 365 and the library was set to the classic experience.

I went to library settings, advanced and then changed it to new experience.

Unfortunately, the library hasn't been switched to the new experience.

I am using internet explorer 11.

Was it helpful?

Solution

If this issue only occurs on a certain library, In your browser's address bar, delete everything in the URL after .aspx. Then, add ?=contents=1 to the end of the URL and press Enter.

A list or document library hidden web part will be displayed as XsltListViewWebPart. Locate any web part that isn't for the list or document library. Select the web part, and then press Delete.

Browse back to the document library page, and then view the new experience.

If that does not work, Open developer tools(F12) in the browser. Just click F12 function key.

Click on application tab,expand cookies section and select the SharePoint online site which you currently working on.

Delete the one with the name ‘spinu’ that has the value.

Refresh the browser and that should work.
