Yes, we've found a solution to this bug.
The procedure is as follows:
1- Launch WORD and in WORD, disconnect from OFFICE 365
2 - WORD will ask you to log in to configure OFFICE: close the window with the cross.
3 - Close WORD
4 - Use WORD to open one of the Sharepoint documents causing the problem
5 - Close WORD
6 - Open WORD and reconnect to OFFICE 365
7 - Close WORD
This procedure worked for us on all the workstations where we used it.
Best Regards,
Eric

That's the $1,000 question... For the moment, it's still working for us...
- JamesOxtobySep 25, 2023Copper ContributorWe have found that any update to Office pre 2308 seems to cause the issue to re-occur.
Following the same steps resolves the issue, until the next update.
We 'believe' that the issue is 'resolved' after 2308....but don't hold me to that!
