Hi Michael

Many thanks. We've done these steps and it didnt result in any solution regretfully

Microsoft also got back to me on my ticket ref this mentioned issue, and they wrote:

Hi Michael,

This is in reference to your service request number 1XXXXXX8. We reproduced the issue in our test environment and were getting a similar error. We have engaged our backend team to check if this behavior can be changed or is there a work around for this specific issue. I will keep you posted on the status of the same.

Thank you for your support and patience.

Regards,
Abhilav

Kind Regards
