Step 1: Click the "File" Tab from the ribbon;

Step 2: Click "Options" from the left navigation menu;

Step 3: Click "General" from the left navigation menu in the dialog box;

Step 4: Select "Don't show ScreenTips" to hide Screen Tips, or pick one of the first two options to show the Screen Tips.

– "Show feature descriptions in ScreenTips": to show command name and descriptive text;

– "Don't show feature descriptions in ScreenTips": to show command name only;

– "Don't show ScreenTips": to hide ScreenTips, which means nothing appear when hover over on a command.
