[BUG] msdyn_project silently renamed from "Plan/Plans" to "Project/Projects" in new environments
We need clarification from Microsoft on whether this is a bug or an intentional breaking change. Overnight and without any announcement, the msdyn_project table now ships with display name Project / Projects in newly provisioned environments. Dev and UAT environments provisioned a few months ago have Plan / Plans out of the box. All environments are running the exact same PSCore version: 1.0.163.730. The entity is as expected, marked non-renameable — read-only in the maker portal — so there is no way to align environments manually. Solution import from an existing environment (where msdyn_project = "Plan") into a newly provisioned Production environment fails with: 0x8004023B: Entity 44286cce-2389-4532-ac04-7a18a2818e9a is not a renamable entity. Hence Entity Display Name cannot be modified The only workaround — and why it is not acceptable It is technically possible to manually edit customizations.xml inside the solution ZIP before importing, removing the <DisplayName> node for msdyn_project. The import will then succeed, but Production will permanently show "Project" while Dev and UAT show "Plan" — a broken inconsistency across environments. More importantly, this is not how ALM is supposed to work. Developers should never have to manually patch solution artifacts to work around a platform-level inconsistency introduced silently by Microsoft. This is incompatible with automated CI/CD pipelines and unsustainable for any team managing multiple environments. The question for Microsoft Is this a bug or a planned change? If it is a bug: when will it be fixed, and is there a supported workaround in the meantime? If it is a planned change: why was it not communicated, and what is the supported migration path for teams with existing environments and solutions? [UPDATE]: After 3 attempts of resetting and reprovisioning the Production environment, msdyn_project finally came up with Plan / Plans — same process, same PSCore version each time. The behavior is non-deterministic. The only workaround currently available is to keep resetting your environment until you get lucky, which is not an acceptable answer for any type of deployment.
Slow UI update for deleted events
I've built an integration that continuously syncs events between an external scheduling system and Exchange Online using Microsoft Graph. I'm observing a recurring issue when deleting calendar events via Graph: A DELETE request to Graph returns success (204 No Content). A subsequent GET /events/{id} returns 404, confirming the event is deleted server-side. However, the event continues to appear in the Outlook UI (both Outlook Web and desktop) for an extended period (sometimes hours), even after page reloads or app restarts. The odd behaviour The event is still displayed in the user interface for up to several hours The event persist through page reloads If the user clicks the event it opens briefly and immediately closes, the event disappears from the UI afterward. Additional details Delete endpoint: /users/{id}/events/{id} Graph response: 204 No Content Verified deletion via GET → 404 Reproduces in both Outlook Web and Outlook desktop Questions Is this a known Outlook client caching or calendar view indexing issue? Is there a way to force client reconciliation after deletes? Are there Graph or Exchange constraints around rapid create/update/delete cycles that could cause this UI inconsistency?
2026.02.20 - Planner UI update is worse
The UI changes to Planner within the latest Teams desktop app update (version 26032.208.4399.5) has regressed in its functionality and is worse than before. Previously, all of the contents of an item in the Planner were visible at the same time. Now I have to tab between Task Details, Attachments and Checklist, and am unable to view these at once, which has become a critical workflow for me. It is extremely irritating, as I've developed a workflow around how Planner was presented (which was that everything within a task was visible at once), and now it has been compartmentalised. Please unwind this - it is a regressive update and provides less information and requires more interaction to work through the detail of a task.
"File not found" error (Error 53) when opening Access database
I'm getting a "File not found" (Error 53) error when trying to open an Access database (.accdb file). The error appears during the database startup process and points to a VBA subroutine declaration line: The error message mentions "The file was not found where specified" which suggests VBA is looking for a file during project compilation, but I can't identify what file it's looking for. Has anyone encountered this issue where the same Access file works with some SQL Server backends but fails to even open with others?
Unable to filter embedded list
OMG- could they f up sharepoint any more. It used to be such a powerful tool. It is harder than ever now. So- embed a lits in a page with a list part. I am showing controls and on default view-no search. there is now also NO FILTER PART so i go to github patterns and practices to download. Butttttt, I can't upload because while I am global admin, I am not sharepoint admin and cannot change my permissions. Create second admin account with all permissions. Tr to update my normal account permissions, and it says "you do not have permission to save." SO- do you know any other way to get a search of a list on a page? And - any thoughts on my permissions hell?
Integrated - PowerApps Customized Form - not working
Hi, The Power App customised form is not being retrieved. When the user selects the 'Add new item' button a customised form should open, but getting this pop up. Does anyone know if there are any issues with SharePoint Online and this will hopefully resolve itself or any other potential solution as to why this is occurring. It was working yesterday
Access Distribution Package
I am sure this has been asked before but her is my design... 1) I have built an Access database application the distribution tool has the ability to display a folder picker that asks the admin for the <root> (NAS< Fileserver, etc.) copy the Backend or database files to that selected <root> create a Workstation Install tool file copy completed relink frontend to backend file system create a shortcut link on the workstation desktop This is a very simplified description, but I believe that it is not an unusual request. thanks for all your assistance in advance.
