Dear OneDrive users, We have been made aware of an issue concerning shared folders on OneDrive, where certain shared folders are displayed as .URL Internet shortcuts rather than actual folders within the "File Explorer". This has resulted in users being unable to browse the contents of these folders and instead are provided with a link to the OneDrive website.

How do I find whatever key I need to activate my preinstalled Microsoft Office that HP sold me, I forgot and was reminded of their crappy Operating Systems Check I ran it and it reminded me to activate it.

I'm the sole global admin and primary named user on a Microsoft 365 Business tenant (the subscription is under my personal/business name). Last month I replaced my iPhone, which had the Microsoft Authenticator app installed, and attempted to migrate my accounts. During the transfer process, the Authenticator app did not re-sync my 2FA Credentials, so now I'm completely locked out of my admin account, even though I still have the correct username and password stored in my password manager.Thankfully, I was still able to access this standard user account that I'm using to write this question (wh

Hi, I updated to a new iphone. but my authenticator app didn't move over. I cannot login to my account as I do not have access to the authenticator app. To make matters worse, I cannot submit an issue with microsoft as when I try to login, it tells me my account does not exist. I tried to call the helpline and the robot kept giving me random websites to visit for help and would then hang up. How can I get support or speak to a real person? Please help!

As soon as I insert a text box, or type in an existing text box, the cursor in the main text disappears.At the same time, pressing the return key when using bullet points does nothing until I click where the bullet point should be and it appears.Also, it doesn't pick up any spelling errors.I am using an iMac running Ventura 13.7.5 running Word version 16.96.1.

Hello I have the following data: HEREOriginally, I unpivoted the Value column that you can see in the sheet named Combined 2024 and 2025. This is a multi-select question from a survey and I wanted to be able to see all the answer options from his one question in one column.When I created a pivot table to look at this data by count and cut it by year, I see that the number of each response is being counted correctly, but the grand total for each is not. This is preventing me from easily getting percentages. When I change the pivot table summary to distinct counts, 2024 is being counted correctl

Hi all,Since a few months I'm running into the problem that sometimes when I'm working in heavy, though not extremely heavy workbooks, Excel freezes when I select a part of the formula in the formula bar. Most of the time it works fine (instantly), in other cases it crashes and it's rather unpredictable, though it does not seem to happen with very small pieces of texts, such as simple cell references. I'm using the latest Excel 365 version. Recently I upgraded my hardware to an HP Elitebook that has 32GB RAM instead of 16GB RAM that I used to have (not because of these crashes). This has not s
