Word freezes or crashes when pressing the G key in the file search
When pressing the letter G in the file search on Word, it either just freezes and doesn't respond or crashes immediately. Regardless of whether Word is in Safe Mode or not. It also pops up a "Word couldn't start last time" pop-up when I try to open the app again and asks if I want to open it in Safe Mode. Which, as I said, still has the same problem. As far as I can tell, that's the only issue with Word. Everything else works great so far. This does not happen with other apps like PowerPoint or Excel. I have only recently reinstalled all the apps and it does not seem to have helped. Windows 11 25H2
Functionality to mark a slide complete
I do not believe this functionality alread exists but I'm quite sure I'm not the only one that would love to have it added. Now when working in a larger powerpoint slide deck I start with adding a "traffic light" to my slides that's red, and when the slide is finished I turn it green. Then, before presenting I have to delete all traffic lights before the deck is truly ready. This way I can keep track of which slides still need attention and prevent myself from spending time on slides I shouldn't. Now I believe it would be very nice if it was a built in feature where you can mark individual slides as "complete / final" or "needs attention" with visual feedback of this status in for example the navigation pane. How do others handle this and is there a trick I do not know of?MICROSOFT O365 LICENSES TO ACCESS IN IRAN

Send admin notifications on x number of messages from an email address
Hi, We're having a problem with a repeat spam/phishing offender that recycles email addresses from a particular domain. Because the email address is new it hasn't had a chance to be picked up by blacklists, so it doesn't get picked up as spam. We can't block on content, subject or sender because it all changes so for these campaigns we're relying on user reports to give us the heads up. We also can't block the domain because we receive legitimate email from the domain also. I'd like to change this so we can hit them before users notice and possibly whilst the spam campaign is in flight but I'm unsure as to how to go about it. Is there a rule or other setting I can configure which sends notifications to specific e-mail addresses if, say 100 emails were received from any email address (or from a specific domain?) within an hour, or 5 hours? I don't see how I can configure such a rule in mailflow rules so I'm guessing this might be somewhere else. There's an element of us likely being falsely alerted to marketing campaigns, but hopefully it's configurable enough that we can limit it down to only applying this against a specific sender domain, or adding a new custom mailflow rule which will lower the likelihood of false positives. Many thanks, - LswardXlookup with nested IF
Thank you in advance for your help. What I am trying to do is return a value (using Xlookup) but only if another value matches. Maybe I need to use Index/Match, but here's my example: Col A Col B Col C Col D Yes John Smith 1.50 No John Smith 1.25 So, I'm trying to enter an Xlookup that will search for "Smith" in column C and return Col D, but only if Col A is also "Yes". I tried =XLOOKUP("Smith",$C:$C,IF($A3="yes",$D:$D,"-"),"-") but I get a "#Value" error. For real life application, I would be replacing "Smith" with a cell reference and "yes" with another cell reference. But for the example, if A=yes, then return D if Col C=Smith. I just need to figure out in which order xlookup (or index/match) would look for those. Any help is appreciated.ODBC error (incorrect syntax) since 2604
Overnight i have the problem that many inserts in my MS Access app do not work anymore. I get the error Run-time error '3155': ODBC--insert on a linked table 'tablename' failed. [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Incorrect syntax near '='.(#102) I have been able to isolate this issue on a column of type NVARCHAR(MAX). If I insert any value except null in this column the error above will show on save. I tested with other variants of NVARCHAR. The problem happens starting from NVARCHAR(256), thus what is Long Text for Ms Access. When i insert the record first with a value null for this column, no error is generated and the record is saved. If i 'Update' the record later with a text value in this column, that is no problem. So, the ODBC connection generates a sql insert statement that is mallformed in case of a long text. I have this problem consistent on all apps and all tables where i have NVARCHAR(>255). My solution is to go back to office release 2508 (semi annual support).
OneDrive Archival of Unlicensed Users
The change enforcing archival of unlicensed OneDrive users after 93 days was announced in January of last year but seems to be hitting tenants very gradually. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/unlicensed-onedrive-accounts?WT.mc_id=365AdminCSH_spo I'm curious what other organizations are doing to tackle this change and how widespread the rollout has been so far. When the change was announced, did your organizations do anything to prepare? For those of you who are already seeing archival in your tenant When did it actually begin? Particularly for very high volumes of unlicensed accounts, how are you handling this? Have you had any luck with Purview content search and export for retrieval of files?

Hi guys I use OneNote extensively for work as my virtual notepad. At most of my working locations, I use my laptop - Dell Latitude 7440 - connected to either a Dell Docking station + 2 monitors, or a pair of samsung monitors which have an inbuilt hub, connect via USB-C and are daisychained together. I've never had any issues with OneNote in the past, but recently have found that if I try and move my OneNote window onto either external monitor, it seems to break OneNote - the whole window becomes just the index list which is normally a column on the left (where it shows all your notebooks and pages) and it won't actually display any of the content from the notebooks/pages. If I try minimizing that column, it has a complete breakdown as if its unable to properly load the actual page content. The only way to fix this is to drag the window back to my laptop screen and then close it and reopen. Has anyone else experienced this? It's really frustrating and affecting my productivity as I often need it side-by-side with other screens.
Files shared with Anyone sometimes prompt users to request acccess to the file
My company is experiencing an intermittent problem where sometimes a OneDrive for Business file shared with the setting "Anyone with this link can edit" prompts the user the file is being shared with to request access. If the user tries to open the file a second time, they can then access the file without requesting access. We're wondering why that access request prompt sometimes happens and how to prevent it. It doesn't happen consistently, so we're having trouble reproducing and troubleshooting it. Has anyone seen this before and know how to fix it?
