Did you find / resolve the issue?
- kwester-ebbinghaus-businessFeb 03, 2022Iron Contributorif this is a traditional Windows Server File Server you can open the computer management mmc, remotely connect to the fileserver and check the open files to see who has opened the file.
You can sort column in the MMC by user or path etc.- Feb 03, 2022That's correct, but the question of Bundoo was about the user not getting a message in Word/Excel who the user is who's actually locking the file

for unknown reasons I have a customer that must disable this feature in OneDrive. As any files opened would be reported to be locked. This is not the default but an issue we did not find the root cause.
