Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK V2.34 Makes WAM the Default
The Web Account Manager (WAM) authentication broker becomes the default method for handling interactive Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK connections from V2.34 onwards. The rapid release of a new version (V2.33 appeared 12 days beforehand) is usually a sign of a big problem, but in this case the reason is more likely to be a security vulnerability that’s just come to light. We’ll find out after the holidays. We've released V19.1 of the Automating Microsoft 365 with PowerShell eBook (the advantage of ePublishing) to keep track with developments. https://office365itpros.com/2025/12/23/web-account-manager-graph-sdk/
M365 automatically reverts back to an older version
I'm migrating to Monthly Enterprise Channel using the M365 servicing plan which seems to work fine, except for a handful of computers. Their channel changes, but their office version will not stay current. After the version would not change from 2007 to 2211, I uninstalled Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise and installed 2211. The next morning, I checked, and it reverted back to 2007. I've used this same process on several other laptops, and all has worked well. Any ideas why this is occurring?
How to change primary user
I'm helping someone whose husband died. They have a "Microsoft 365 Family" plan. He was the primary person and she was a secondary user. I suspect for consistency of her information she should not make a new account in her name and abandon this previous account. Rather if possible she should keep the current account but make herself the primary account holder and make his email a secondary. She would keep his address active just for a while until everything to do with him is wound down. But how does she change the account so she becomes the primary?

Hi everyone, I’m currently integrating Microsoft Word and Excel into our platform and making sure we follow all the recommended UI guidelines. In our solution, we use an internal timer component that runs while users are working inside our product(I mean the timer shows total time left for their tasks something like this). I’m trying to understand whether this timer can be built or installed as an Office Add‑in for Word and Excel. Would implementing it as an add‑in still align with Microsoft’s UI guidelines? Any guidance or clarification would be really helpful. Thanks!
Multiple word documents are open simultaneously causing performance issues.
Does anyone know what the optimal size of Word documents should be if you have multiple word documents open simultaneously? I frequently access two Word documents at are about 800KB each. When I have both open, I notice a significant performance degradation when I do searches, add/modify/delete contact, toggle between the documents. This really impacts my productivity. I am wondering I should reduce the size of these files or move them to a different drive or memory stick to improve performance. I don't want to break these documents up yet given that instead of having two Word documents open, I might have four Word documents open simultaneously and still have the performance issues. I have performed online repairs of Microsoft 365 and checked my addins but nothing seems to help.
