Hello all,
We have a library and although I am a site administrator I can open documents in the Office Desktop Apps read only. This affects all documents in the library. In the web application I can edit. We have assigned permissions for individual folders and files for colleagues within the library, but I don't think this has anything to do with my profile for now. A permissions check for my profile shows the following:
It's really annoying because we've had these problems before. At that time, Microsoft support said that as long as content permissions are enabled, SharePoint always syncs read-only to the desktop apps. With a lot of work we created a workaround to disable content approval and now we are facing the same problems.
Any help is appreciated. Many thanks in advance

Additional information: If I pause the synchronisation for my OneDrive app, the document can be opened normally from SharePoint. When I reactivate the synchronisation, the document opens in read-only mode again.
