Greetings Everyone!
I am hoping to get some help with an issue regarding WIP and Office 2019. We are a healthcare company that is attempting to increase employee data access while keeping that data safe. WIP /w MDM seems to be a pretty good fit to what we are looking for and I've had only minor issues in setting up and testing the policies.
The primary issue I am experiencing is that when opening a protected document "File Ownership = Work" in Excel or Word, it becomes read-only and is asking for me to "Activate Office to gain full access to your work files".
When I click activate, it completely breaks my Office install and I have to completely re-install it to gain activation again. I have tried disabling the WIP policy, which removes the "work/personal" protection options, but Office remains un-activated and broken until re-install.
Is there an option, boundary, or setting I am missing on either my client side or on the MDM side?
Any help out would be grand!

Never seen this one before, you have the same issue on several devices?

I've only pushed the policy to my PC for testing before I loop other people into it. I don't have any other Intune enrolled devices that I can test on. You know, work from home! If I was able to work from the office I'd just setup a few more test cases.
