Hello
I am trying to open .docx files from the Teams application using the Word App. However every time I do that, the file opens in Read-Only mode. Is there a way to open it in Editor mode? I would like to work on the file and update it on Teams.
Thanks

Hello
Sorry, none of the steps you described has worked. The file keeps opening in 'read-only' mode when opened using MS Word. Any other solutions, please? It was working fine last week The problem has been occurring for the past few days.
Thanks and regards
