Outlook not showing the AIP Protect button for classic labels
- May 26, 2020
PeterRisingthe latest version of AIP is what I force/ manually installed on one of our pcs and it seems to work. think its version 1.54.** .We were using version before that which isn't supported anymore.
Looks like GPO isn't uninstalling the previous version to update it to the new version I added, that's why we don't have the protect icon .
PeterRisingHi,
I haven't activated the Unified labels. See attachment to prove it's still not active. I intend to do this sometime this year but not now as I still have until 2021 to migrate the classified labels.
OK, so if sounds as if that even though you've not migrated / unified your labels just yet, that you've somehow deployed the unified labelling client. If this is the case, it would be no surprise that you cannot see your labels in your Office Applications.
I'd personally recommend moving towards the Unified client, but if you didn't wish to do so then you would need to remove this...
And then reinstall this...

Sesu- In Control Panel > Programs and Features, what do you see for Azure Information Protection? Is the version along the lines of the below which is the classic client?
Or as below which is the Unified Labelling client;

I checked program and features but can't find it, although I used to have it. I also used wmic using cmd to check installed msi apps then it appears as installed. If I search for the AIP on start it doesn't show up neither do I find it under the roaming/microsoft/addins folder .
I initially deployed the app using GPO.
Thanks.

Interesting, Try downloading and installing this - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/information-protection/rms-client/aip-client which is the classic AIP client which should give you the Protect button that you want.
The newer unified client with the sensitivity bar/button can be found here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/information-protection/rms-client/install-unifiedlabelingclient-app
