Open Files from SharePoint in "Protected" mode by default
Many users have complained about "auto save" as people open a file and start working on it immediately, not realising their changes are being saved. I know that you can use protection in Office, if the author sets it. This is a good option forcing people to "think" before editing My Question Is it possible to set this as the default either for all documents in a specific library and/or for specific users
External Access to Sharepoint Problem
Apologies, I am not technical and I am struggling to solve an issue with an external user that I am trying to grant access to a folder. They get the link and are shown as sharing on the file but they can't gain access without a password. This is not a condition that I have set? This whole experience has been a bit of a nightmare, if I were techie then I have the feeling I would understand the advice and could solve the issue, but nothing seems written in plain english for a lay person!
SharePoint List - item visible but clicking on it does not open it in popup (similar to edit screen)
-this is a sharepoint online site (which gets created when we make ms teams channel) -there is mutliple list and libraries inside this sharepoint site -there is a list lets call that 'abc' list - it has approx 15 -20 columns- text, number, url, lookup , (nothing fancy, content types not there, just imagine a business user setup this list to put in some process relatged info..they are NOT sp advanced user ) -there are around 15 list items (yes very less items!) -approx 3-4 days ago he created those items in the list and when he click on the item (by clicking on title) it used to open in the default sharepoint pop up - this list has not more than 30 users with some has full control, some has read, some has edit-- mostly these permission are coming from sharpoint inherited groups , and list is still inheriting permission (active useres who contribute and view content in this list are just 3-4 people) -now the PROBLEM is when he click on the title to view items , nothing happens , no popup opens ---fixes we tried-- restart laptop -swithch browsers (tried on chrome and edge) currently using edge. removed this user from sharepoint site (he was residing in multiple groups), we removed him from every grp and deleted few grps as well now when we 'check' in the sharepoint permission-> it showed this user has 'none' permission then we granted him 'full control' again he was able to see items but cannot 'open' item, or 'add' is also not working for him he is however able to do 'quick edit' and enter new values we did hard refresh etc. we checked the default forms in list settings> form settings- it is default to sharepoint form (NOT power apps) we did other due deligence, but nothing seems to work for handful of people, however for other set of people the list is working as expected

Set lower permissions in a doc. library than remainder of site
I have a site used by a group and they have the Member level permissions for the site. There is one document library that receives files through an Automate Rule from another site. The files copy copied whenever created or modified. That all works great. BUT they should have READ-ONLY access to that destination library. I am trying to set a lower level for that one library, so they can view & read the files but not make changes. I went to the Library settings and to the "Permissions for this document library." I broke with the parent permissions and the button "Delete unique permissions" appears as expected. I don't see a way to set different (lower) permissions for this library than the other parts of the site. Can I? If so, how? Thank you.
Sharing is limited on this item
We have Microsoft Teams connected SharePoint site. The one thing that team members have noticed is that they see the option “Sharing is limited on this item” before sharing any files which was not there before and now owners are still receiving email notifications for approval even though users (both senders and receivers) do already have access. Does anyone have insight? Is there some sharing limitation set in SharePoint? Nothing has changed with site sharing settings.
