https://word-edit.officeapps.live.com wants to open this application. SharePoint Online

Apparently I'm the only one noticing this because I can't find ANYTHING on the web. So when I select "Open in Desktop App" from an office online file while using Chrome...I get this window:

End users are wondering how to bypass this. What's the deal? Anyone?

I am having the same problem.  Just started today.  Hadnt had any problem in the past.  And when I try to log in with my credentials; it says Im already logged on on this pc.  I can get the files to open into word desktop app.

since this week I also have the issue that I can't open anymore Office files (Excel, Word) in the Desktop-App

System keeps asking me to log in but that has no succes other than a "no access" of "can't find the file"

Who knows what is going on. for me there is the https://euc-word-edit.officeapps.live.com link mentioned as the one that wants to open Word Desktop -app

Just today I had an end user report this, except for us we're getting https://usc-word-edit.officeapps.live.com. I'd love to know what causes this!

All through the night, Outlook online kept initiating contact with my computer.  This is what kept showing up: http://word-edit.officeapps.live.com/we/RemoteUlS.ashx?build=16.0.14209.41004&waccluster=PUS8  What is this?
