We use the Interop.Word from a Winforms application for interaction with Word documents. Everything was okay until the latest Office 365 updates on 10/31. Word hangs when used from within Interop.Word. Issue resolved itself when Office update is rolled back. Did something happen or change with respect to Interop.Word during this update? I haven't seen any other reported issues regarding this.dashgirNov 07, 2024Occasional Reader7Views0likes0CommentsMS Word Mac lagging/freezing
In the last few days (November 2024) my MS Word for Mac has been either freezing, or running very slow. I type letters and they take over 30 seconds to appear. Other times, the program just freezes altogether (though it does not appear as frozen in the "force quit". I have tried rebooting several times, closing other programs, etc. but no luck.WillDenHaagNov 07, 2024Occasional Reader26Views1like2CommentsHow Microsoft Copilot Generates Compliance Records
A recent article about analyzing interaction records for Microsoft 365 Copilot led to the question if it’s possible to do the same for Microsoft Copilot. After checking the compliance records captured by the Microsoft 365 substrate, we discovered that Microsoft Copilot generates compliance records. However, a bug with encoded text means that the information captured for responses from Microsoft Copilot and Microsoft 365 Chat isn't visible. All explained here. https://office365itpros.com/2024/11/07/microsoft-copilot-interactions/6Views0likes0CommentsUnable to Create a Custom Tab in Excel Web Add-in Using <CustomTab> Element
Hello, I am developing an Office Web Add-in for Excel and encountering difficulties with creating a custom tab in the ribbon using the <CustomTab> element in the manifest. The tab appears as expected when using the built-in Office tabs (like TabHome, TabInsert, or TabAddIns), but does not show up when attempting to create a custom tab. Issue Details Manifest Setup: I’ve followed the Microsoft documentation and used the <CustomTab> element within the <PrimaryCommandSurface> to define a new custom tab. When I use an OfficeTab element instead of CustomTab, assigning it to TabAddIns, TabHome, etc., the add-in loads without any issues, and the button appears as expected. However, switching to <CustomTab> with a unique ID like MyCustomTab causes the tab to disappear from the ribbon in Excel Web (works fine in Excel Desktop). Troubleshooting Steps Taken Validation: Checked the manifest file for errors. All schema validation passes except when switching to CustomTab, where the tab does not appear. Cache Clearing: Cleared Office cache and reloaded Excel Web, but the issue persists. Documentation & Community: Referenced Microsoft’s documentation, forums, and the Script Lab example. Script Lab and tutorials do not address this specific issue with Web Add-ins. Other Attempts: I tried different ID values, double-checked resource strings, and verified that all file paths and URLs are accessible. The issue only occurs with a CustomTab in the Excel Web environment. Additional Observations The <CustomTab> element documentation suggests that it should be supported across all platforms, but my experience is inconsistent in the Web environment. Older videos and tutorials imply that <CustomTab> should work, yet these examples appear limited to desktop environments. Request Could someone confirm if there are known limitations with <CustomTab> in Excel Web Add-ins? Additionally, if there is any workaround or specific manifest structure needed to enable this functionality on Excel Web, I would appreciate any guidance. Additional Context: I am developing in JavaScript with a setup targeting both desktop and web environments. If necessary, I can provide additional manifest details or screenshots. Thank you for your assistance!hnvinaykumarNov 07, 2024Occasional Reader6Views0likes1CommentTotal Sharepoint Online Storage Limit Notification
Hello. I´d like to be notified when 90% of the total sharepoint online storage is used in my tenant. I do not mean the site limit, but the entire sharepoint storage in the tenant.

Hello, Issue: Mails being marked as Not Junk and then moved to InBox, or if I just click and say Move to Inbox, they get wrapped in a message saying there are suspicious links. It is NOT true that there are suspicious links at all and its making emailing impossible. Here is a group of them. Many of the overalls ones are from Microsoft. Its every single mail. My settings are that everything is junk unless its in my safe list. usually I would just go and click them in Junk and say not Junk and move to inbox and its fine. But recently all of a sudden its marks anything I move(which is ALL of them) with this warning, so I have to open it, then click on the mail to open it. I cannot work like this. It has to be a server side change as i have made no changes in my Tenant.MEG_FloridaNov 06, 2024Copper Contributor159Views0likes2CommentsBlog about Troubleshooting Steps for SharePoint Online
