Best, Chris
Roadmap item 82662 is marked as GA rolled out. While setting the default way to open, I can only select between teams and browser. While opening a file, I can choose to open it in app. But I can't set this as default. Teams version is 1.4.00.26376 (64-bit); office version is 2109 (14430.20298). What am I missing?
Why can't i choose App as default?!? Does microsoft not test their software before release? This has got to be the dumbest implementation of default app ever.
I dont want to open my files in the teams app. I dont want to open them in the annoying web app - i want to open my files in my desktop app - which we pay a dearly license for!!
How hard can this be? There surely is more to this than just code. Microsoft just doesnt want us to use the dekstop apps anymore must be the conclusion.
