New Outlook/OWA Text Unreadable on Black Background
Just noticed last night using new Outlook on my personal computer, and now today using it at work, there is an issue that causes dark colored text to be unreadable on a black background. This seems to be impacting Outlook on the web and the new Outlook on Windows. Switching to traditional Outlook shows the text normally. It's as if the client is failing to recognize that dark background is on so it's not flipping the color to make it readable.948Views0likes1CommentRe: OneNote 2016 Crashing After Current Channel Update
Cayla31 Hi. I am not sure which build of the client started causing this behavior but it does seem to be in the January update of current channel. From what I can tell so far, we have had some success by downgrading to something older than version 2012. But that is certainly not a permanent solution.1.8KViews0likes1CommentOneNote 2016 Crashing After Current Channel Update
We are seeing a number of users on current channel now reporting that OneNote crashes at launch. Subsequent launches invoke the recovery screen to clear cache, etc. None of these functions help. We can temporarily get the client to open by deleting the OneNote HKCU keys in the registry but the problem will return after closing and re-launching. We also found that if this reg value is set to something other than 0 then the problem occurs: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\OneNote\FlightedVersion We have resorted to rolling back the client by migrating to Monthly Enterprise or another build in order to resolve. It seems that earlier builds set the FlightedVersion to 0, which prevents the crash. I'm guessing others are seeing this issue and wonder if this is a known bug. Thanks.1.9KViews1like4CommentsRe: MigrateArch+AllowCdnFallback Not Getting Missing Content from CDN
Just a quick update. I imported the config file into the customization tool and it reported a few parameters that were missing. Once I added those and saved the new config the install was able to run. So far, even with language packs installed, it seems like the migration to 64-bit is working. Still testing but thanks for the guidance. Doug1.8KViews0likes0CommentsRe: MigrateArch+AllowCdnFallback Not Getting Missing Content from CDN
Thanks manoth_msft Yes, all I really want to do is transition to 64-bit but it seems the presence of the additional language is throwing it off. I'll test this XML and see how it goes. I confirmed both .cab files are in the data folder. Doug1.8KViews0likes0CommentsMigrateArch+AllowCdnFallback Not Getting Missing Content from CDN
Dear Community, Here's my scenario: Office 32-bit semi-annual 1908 build 16.0.11929.20562 installed on a machine. English and Finnish languages installed Trying to migrate from 32-bit to 64-bit using the MigrateArch parameter Also set AllowCdnFallback to True since we are using a 64-bit source that only contains bits for English There are two LanguageID parameters set: MatchInstalled and MatchOS Executing the ODT with this XML, the installation fails with the error: "Couldn't stream Office" Based on the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployoffice/change-bitness#providing-a-source-location-to-be-used-with-the-migratearch-attribute, the Finnish language files should come down from the CDN if AllowCdnFallback = True. The XML file, source folder image and error image are in the attached zip file. Any assistance is very much appreciated. Thanks, Doug2KViews0likes4Comments
