Even after following both sets of steps outlined above including step 6 in a later post about "Put a check on theAllowthen apply and save." my Outlook, Word, and Excel all close a second after opening. Worked fine before I upgraded from Win 7. I avoided any kind of cloud storage up to this point and so far not impressed. I get the same condition if opening from
quick launch, all apps from windows button, or just trying to double click on a local file from my desktop.
Update: After reboot this morning, and a number of updates were pushed down by Microsoft, my Office programs work correctly now but there is a catch.
What is odd is that I am unable to attach items from One Drive to Outlook unless the items are saved into the local mirror copy of One Drive. In other words, if I go to a pc that doesn't have the local copy of One Drive (for me that would be at C:\Users"myAccountName...."\OneDrive
) I can't get to my files. The "One Drive" that Outlook, Access, and Excel pulls its files from it right on my PC's hard drive. It does not reach into the cloud to get the files.
When a One Drive account is first set up, the user has the option to "mirror" their cloud files to a local folder. If you choose not to, then the only way to get to the files would be to sign into one drive via browser, then drag the files to a local spot
(say the desktop) then open/attach from there.
