Can't edit my own document uploaded in sharepoint
ganeshsanap Thank you for replying. Yes, when I download it, I can edit it. But thing is that we have multiple people who need to work together on this document and nobody can edit it, even if they are owners. As I have uploaded that file, I can't edit it as well. That's quite strange.
rebirose You can also try opening SharePoint file in the Office app instead of the browser.
Documentation: Open a OneDrive or SharePoint file in the Office app instead of the browser
Using this way, file will be stored in SharePoint and multiple users can access it.

ganeshsanap I am having this problem too. Can edit if I download them. But cannot if I open them in the word / powerpoint app directly from within teams. Then I have to download, edit, and re-upload the file.
It is like what happens with all other file types - CAD, SolidEdge etc. This has started cropping up since the last couple of months and is really annoying. Am sure I am not the only one facing this. Any buzz around the web why this is happening and how to resolve this?
