Excel jumps to A1 when selecting a range on another sheet during VLOOKUP
Hi everyone, I’m experiencing a strange issue in Excel and I’m hoping someone can help. Steps to reproduce the problem: Open a workbook with at least two sheets (Sheet1 and Sheet2). On Sheet1, start typing a VLOOKUP formula When selecting the table array range, switch to Sheet2 to select the range. Excel unexpectedly jumps the selection or view to cell A1 on Sheet2, losing the intended range selection.
My Outlook.com doesn't receive NDR (non delivery report)
Hi, I have a personal email on outlook.com (with Microsoft 365 Familly). I always use the web client from https://outlook.live.com. If I send an Email to a non existant address, I never receive any NDR. I have check my spam folder, there is nothing. I have no rules, no Email transfert, no IMAP configuration, no POP configuration, ... That seems useless, but some time I wait some answer from people, and I discover after weeks that I have made a small error in their Email. I already miss important business because off that. And I can't call my client each time I send an Email to be sure they get it. How can I receive the NDR ? Thanks for your help.
why is excel changing a formula in a locked and protected cell
I have quite a complex spreadsheet for use in my hobby of PBM - the spreadsheet includes an order form for players to submit instructions but with 1 player i am experiencing problems that I cannot fathom why it is happening Upon emailing my spreadsheet, one of the cells in a hidden and protected part of the form keeps changing, the formula changes for no obvious reason creating an error as it is then trying to bring in/read data from an invalid cell. This only happens with this 1 person, everyone else who receives the exact same spreadsheet has no issue, the formula does not change and the spreadsheet works as intended - just not for this one person. the cell is hidden and protected, the sheet is also password protected - it should not be possible for this cell to change but it does. Does anyone know why this might be happening? Both myself and the recipient of the spreadsheet run office 365 so there should be no issue with compatibility. as i say it is happening only to this one person, nobody else, and i do not understand why - looking for ideas on how to resolve this issue!!
"Access" does not close completely, so the further application must be closed in the task manager
If vba was used in "Access", the application no longer closes completely and must be closed in the task manager. The problem occurs on one device and the same application runs without problems on another. The problem arose with Access 2019 on windows 11. Now I have uninstalled Office 2019. But even with Office 365 the problem remains.
Access Query Finding Old/Deleted Data
I have replaced several outdated tables in an Access database recently with updated versions. The issue that is now occurring is that my queries are pulling the old data that doesn't exist anymore in the table and creating duplicate entries in my output (one row with the updated data and one row with the deleted data). Does anyone know why this happens and what the fix is? The old data isn't in my table so I'm not sure how to surface it to remove it.Query failure in Windows 11
Hi I just had a new computer at work, and changed from windows 10 to windows 11. I have a query, which compare 2 tables, and add rows in table2 that dont exits in table1. This has been working for years, but now it, only sometimes, double all the rows. INSERT INTO MPS Columns from Table2 (Access linked to sharepoint) SELECT MPS2. Columns from table1 FROM MPS2 WHERE not exists (Select 1 from MPS WHERE MPS.[MPSid] = MPS2.[MPSid]); It compares a unik field MPSid It doubles the rows sometimes, and the MPSid is the same, in the doubled rows Has something changed, or is there a workaround?

I'm working on an outlook addin and want to use the NAA accesstoken to validate the user on an api running on a php webserver. The addin runs as a taskepane (created with yo office) with the app only manifest. I have setup NAA to do Microsoft graph calls on behalf of the user. I have used this guid to setup NAA (copy/past) https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/develop/enable-nested-app-authentication-in-your-add-in I have setup a php server (not in Microsoft infrastruktur) for a simple API, that handlers MySQL calls and app only calls to Microsoft graph. The php api authenticate itself with a client secret from the Azure app registration. Both are working as expected. Can i use the accesstoken from the NAA, to authenticate the user on the php server? If it can be done how do I validate the token?Updating the Entra ID Password Protection Policy with the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK
The Entra ID password protection policy contains settings that affect how tenants deal with passwords. Entra ID includes a default policy that doesn’t require additional licenses. Creating a custom password protection policy requires tenant users to have Entra P1 licenses. As explained in this article, once the licensing issue is solved, it’s easy to update the policy settings with PowerShell. https://office365itpros.com/2025/10/23/password-protection-policy-ps/Delete cells with 3 consecutive consonants
I submitted a question a little while back asking how to delete cells with exactly 3 consonants. The response I had was a huge help, but now I'm faced with a similar problem: How do I sort words by consecutive consonants? And if that cannot be achieved, how can I instead delete cells from a sheet in which a word has 3 consecutive consonants?my microsoft account is hacked
5 days ago, i was trying to verify my account at a discord server, then i realize that they are hacking my account because of incoming security mails. they changed my account security mails. and they even changed my mail to mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons (my mail was mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons). i tried to save my account through "save your account", but it didnt work because i dont know the birth date of the e mail( i usually dont use my own (im not under 18)). i have bunch of proof that it was my e mail. i bought xbox pc game pass subscription 2-3 months ago and i bought minecraft pc edition 1 months ago with that microsoft account. i have all payment info etc. please give my microsoft account back. i am also uploading screenshots. please help me 😕 (sorry for poor language, the screenshots is turkish, if it is possible i need a turkish support people )Multi-Factor Authentication for people without a Smart Phone?
Howdy, We have a couple people who don't have Smart Phones and need to use MFA. We don't want to use a simple Text Message if we can and prefer to use something a bit more secure. I found there is an Authenticator App for Windows 10 but it doesn't seem to work with O365 accounts. Are there any sort of keyfob dongle or USB dongle thing that work with Office 365 that we can get for people who don't have smartphones? I've used the kind where the number on the fob changes every minute just like an authenticator app would but that was many years ago. If anyone knows something we can use to make this work, let me know. Thanks!
