Is there no way to allow people to comment on my word document?
I am trying to share something I am working on with beta readers and some friends but the only options are "can edit" or "can view". There is no option for "can comment" or to let them viewers use the review function. I asked for help with the issue and got told that because my account is personal OneDrive and not business that there is no review only feature. Was that a mistake or is Microsoft really this behind on basic features? Google Drive has allowed giving people access with "comment only" for years.SolvedHarley001Nov 25, 2025Copper Contributor50Views0likes2CommentsAsking for ‎Using a work account (Business Basic) in Outlook Home Version
I have the Home version of Office built into my Windows laptop and am already using it with a personal account. I plan to subscribe to Business Basic. Can my Business Basic account be used with the Home version of Office? Perhaps I could sign out of my personal account and then sign in with my Business Basic work account. Are there any implications if I do that? Or do you have any suggestions?

I recently joined a new company and am helping support their M365 tenant and admin duties. I'm running into a very weird issue where no recipients can actually read/view the message when we encrypt emails using only 1 specific method (our organization largely uses the Outlook Classic for Microsoft 365 desktop app). If a user follows this method, for some reason the 'Do Not Forward' label is applied to the encryption, despite specifically selecting 'Encrypt-Only' - it defaults to 'Do Not Forward' every single time: New Email > File > Encrypt > Encrypt-Only Sending emails with this method gives any/all recipients a "You don't have sufficient permissions to open the mail." regardless of where they try to open the email (OWA, Outlook Classic, New Outlook) Yet, if the user tries this other method below - the proper Encrypt-Only label is applied, and any Outlook client immediately and opens/views the email as you'd expect: New Email > Options ribbon > Encrypt properly applies the Encrypt-Only label I verified IRM (Identity Rights Management) is enabled for our tenant: And encryption tests pass with flying colors: Ultimately, I'm at a loss for what's going on here and specifically where to check to fix this issue for this 1 specific encryption method. Poking around in the Purview portal, I'm having a hard time figuring out where these encryption policies/settings lie and how to get this method to stop defaulting to 'Do Not Forward' even though 'Encrypt-Only' is checked.SolvedITTTTTT42Oct 29, 2025Copper Contributor188Views2likes4CommentsWhat is the best OKR Software for Microsoft 365?
So... It is finally happening. Viva Goals is less than two months from shutting down. With Viva Goals having been built by Microsoft for Microsof users, it had a certain advantage over other apps in the app store. So now, what do you all think is the best OKR Software for Microsoft 365? Because I'm pretty sure even though they were warned well in advance, there are probably some organizations still using Viva Goals that will need to switch fast!SolvedJordanT86Oct 22, 2025Copper Contributor101Views0likes2CommentsAdd a page title to a OneNote page using Power Automate
Hello, I have set up a flow in Power Automate to create a new page in OneNote. It extracts information from an email, including the information that I want to be the title of the new page in OneNote. The flow creates the new page in the correct notebook and section, but the page is untitled. My flow correctly composes the title in a Compose action named PageTitle. The parameters for the action "Create page in a section" only include the following Notebook Key Notebook section Page Content AI suggested that I add the page title to Page Content inside either an html h1 tag. I tried that. It does not turn the text inside the tag into the title of the page. It simply formats the text inside the contents of the OneNote page. I also tried using the html title tag. That didn't work either, and the PageTitle wasn't even output into the contents of the OneNote page, so it was just empty. I would appreciate suggestions for how to do this. I cannot see either a OneNote tag or Power Automate tag for this discussion. If I am posting my question in the wrong discussion place, please direct me to the right place. Thanks.SolvedLene_KottalOct 19, 2025Copper Contributor272Views0likes3CommentsAccessing an App through 'Open in new window' from Teams only opens file error
Hello, I have deleted an Excel file from a SharePoint folder that I don't need anymore. Now, when I try to open Excel 365 from 'Open in new window' in Teams, I don't get to the usual landing page with recent files, options for a new file, etc. but just an error message: 'Sorry, this file has been deleted or moved', referring to the file that I have indeed deleted. I can access the usual landing page if it's in the Excel 365 window embedded in Teams, but opening the app in a new window is no longer possible. Why would the landing page for opening an app in a new window not be the normal landing page, but just an error message, with no option to open another file, seems counter-intuitive. Does anyone have a solution? Best regards, MJSolvedtheRealMJOct 09, 2025Copper Contributor36Views0likes2CommentsInvited to external group - add to Outlook 365
Hi all (second try, first topic I posted seemed to not post). I have accepted an invite to an M365 group from another tenant. I can view the group via the link in the invitation email. How do I add this group to Outlook 365 (Classic)? thanks jSolvedjustletmelogin50Sep 25, 2025Brass Contributor34Views0likes2CommentsProblems sharing files with users outside Tenant
An additional Sign In window appears for external users with whom we share files or folders through OneDrive and/or SharePoint. The window for entering the email appears (to validate that it's the intended recipient), but before entering the verification code, the Organization Sign In window appears. This sometimes requests a password, which can cause issues or even prevent users from sharing these folders with external users. Authentication flow example: Normally, step 2 is followed by step 4, but in my case, it's taking me to step 3 where I have to re-enter the email address I'd already entered in step 2. This isn't normal. In this case, there's no major problem with this email because it then asks for the verification code, and I log in without a problem. But for example, when I tried another email address, also from Gmail, it asks for a password to authenticate: Then I realized it's asking for my password because that email is associated with my GitHub account, and it's trying to authenticate with a password. However, this flow is incorrect because for authentication to SharePoint files shared with external users of the Tenant, it should only ask for the username and verification code. The fact that it asks me to enter my email twice, as in step 3 of each example, and that it occasionally asks me for a password, is incorrect in the flow, and I don't know how to change that.Solvedjuan-amaya-2603Sep 17, 2025Copper Contributor89Views0likes1CommentBest 360 feedback software for Microsoft Teams?

I was performing an Online Repair for a user. It did the uninstall fine, but then threw this error. I tried to reinstall, same error. Used the MS Cleanup tool, ran SFC, cleared temp files, cache...
