Split from this thread.

Same issue in our office. All users with O365. It started over this past weekend (07/09/2022). Only Excel files when doing a Save As, Browse. Some users experience it with File Open.

All other applications work without issue. Nothing in event viewer shows any problems.

    I suspect early October for the Current Channel and November 9th for the Enterprise Monthly Channel, but it is possible it may be earlier.

    We have this issue in Excel and Outlook and I am on Version 2208 (Build 15601.20064 Click-to-Run). We are using Folder Redirection using UNC path. We are not using DFS. The F12 trick works for Save-As in Excel, however this is not practical for our users and does not help for Outlook.

    Thank you Alex!!

    This has been plaguing me for months. While my users are on the semi-annual channel, I run the monthly updates to get a preview of what is to come.
