MicrosoftWindows Server 2022 adds support for Microsoft 365 Apps
Updating our support policy through October 2026
Based on feedback from customers, we are happy to share that we are updating our support policy for Microsoft 365 Apps on Windows Server 20...
We installed Server 2022 in August 2023, and out of the box we had onedrive sync and other 365 apps working well.
At the end of Oct 2023, work accounts vanished, and all Outlook, OneDrive, and Edge accounts refuse to log in or sync in app.
Users on the server can access web flavours of their account, or local word or excel apps - but everything else is totally borked.
This is a pretty barebones Server without much customization acting in a general shared file / storage role. But it has lost all ability to sync local files with OneDrive / SharePoint online which was the main goal.
It's bizarre that this was working - and then went away - while MS documents say "everything 365 should run just fine".
just avoid any M365 apps and services and stay with standard on prem applications. Easier and much cheaper.
- Office Legacy is for light users of Office and LTSC versions in general missing a lot of things aside from basic w32 applications. For the user and in terms of compliance and data management.
It is not an easy choice. There is enough information that LTSC versions, also speaking of Windows Client OS, are not necessarily intended for usual workloads. And I can tell you that's not marketing. The obstacles and limitations exist.
This source gives you a great idea on what M365 offers when and for whom, what Office LTSC cannot.
