I had 2 'Guests' on my outlook excel file with personal information. Last one's name 'Sugarberry' . I could not get them off as they were not listed on my 'Share' list of guests.

I removed their access but these guests won’t go away. Finally Sweetgum went away but I still have Jaracanda. This is definitely a security issue cos I can’t even delete or rename my own file. SMH, the really need to come up with a solution. Or do they need it to trend on social media before they act on it. This is really creepy and giving trust issues
