  @Microsoft365 To use Scout, you need: 1. to be part of the Frontier Preview Program 2. need Office 365 Copilot Access 3. need local admin privileges on the device 4. your IT Admin needs to configure Frontier. 5. your IT Admin needs to configure InTune policy for Scout 6. your local IT Admin needs to agree to (attest to) and opt-in their organisation to third party inference paths. Note: "When data is sent to GitHub Copilot, M365 data residency, retention, eDiscovery, legal hold, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Sensitivity and Confidentiality Labels, audit, SLAs, and the Customer Copyright Commitment do not apply." Here is why this matters: If 'AI' extracts a list of sensitive intellectual property or customer data from a labeled document and pastes it into a new response, that new response has no label. A user could easily copy and paste that text into an external email or a public generative AI tool without triggering any data loss prevention alerts. Regulatory frameworks require strict auditing of where sensitive data travels. Because the new content does not inherit the source classification, your automated compliance systems lose track of that data. The responsibility shifts entirely to the end user to manually classify every single output generated by the AI session, which frequently leads to human error.

  How does @Office365 need to update AGAIN today!? I've already had to close everything down to update this morning! Oh how I long for a MacBook Pro. Oh how I long for a Chromebook. #GGGRRR

  @therahul4402 What's happening with Linux Mint? Windows 11 happened. I did not have serious issues with Windows 10. Log into your MS account..harder and harder local options. All your personal and IP and Work Product files have to be on Onedrive. Copilot. Sales push for Office 365, when anyone with a brain has been using OS for decades. Edge harassment. Poison Updates . Slinking to subscriptions. Eternal cash flow. GFYS with a road flare.

  @peach2k2 @B1rtek1 Same. You have to go to office 365 logout and then sign in again. This is inhumane UX!

  Loading a 2.6mb excel file: * Default chrome plugin on chromebook: unbearably slow. * Office365: faster, but weird placeholder icons. * sheets: fast. (Heard that recent changes will speed office up and remove the progress loading icons.)

  @umarsaif They won't get a chance to become "real". The issue is AI Agents are removing the need for abstraction, UI and unwanted code layers. Entire office suite is now useless. Forget about office 365. Mails, comm channels will survive for sometime. Where Indian IT will contribute?

  @bestfilly @SabreWuff Corps, public sector and universities generally all purchase blanket site licenses which pushes the per seat cost of the Windows OS and Office 365 down to between 5 to 10 bucks. Also the workstations these places lease suck ***. I know, I spent years in Monash IT

  @thealexbanks @CaryPalmerr Literally, Microsoft and Office365 have me dying to leave IT after 20+ years. Just crap software, with terrible interfaces that look like a 5 ye old drew them with crayons.

  @korewadiego My biggest problems are that the UI is awful compared to Office 365, and it seems incapable of opening an existing docx without completely nuking the formatting.

  @glenn_tunes Deal! Since US companies are banned in EU: GMail immediately deletes all accounts for EU citizens and countries. Ditto Office365. YouTube immediately deletes all EU content. Google blocks access to the Play Store for EU citizens. Apple blocks all access to iCloud and other Apple services to EU accounts and deletes all data. AWS immediately deletes all EU accounts and shut down all the EU regions. Ditto Azure. Cloudflare bans all EU IPs. Intel, AMD, NVIDIA, Micron, Texas Instruments, Cisco, Qualcomm, IBM, Dell, and other US hardware companies ban sales of systems and components to the EU. Every major AI provider blocks access to EU citizens and companies. Major SaaS companies, including major manufacturing software providers like Autodesk and Onshape, block access to their products from the EU. Basically the EU accomplishes it's goal to become a 3rd world country overnight without the hassle of importing the 3rd world first.

  @MicrosoftHelps I have a valid MS Office 365 subscription with 1TB of space but Hotmail is suddenly saying I need to buy more Storage from the 1st Feb even though I'm well below 1TB. How do I fix this ?

  Google has done some real wonky crap latley, Now, If you have an Android and use Gmail, it will no longer properly Auth to Office 365 accounts. Keeps asking for credentials. No fix of Yet.

  @davibaah @Mr_GeorgeAddo @NITAGhana They don’t even dedicated servers built and managed by the gov. let alone have infrastructure to protect sensitive and critical data… tweaa… imagine NITA ( the nation’s IT branch using subscription of office365). What happened to on-premise and dedicated exchange server?

  If your organization has Office365, your admins may not have access today because reasons and no, the reasons aren't given, nor is a timeline, nor does it actually show as an issue on the status page, which is annoying, @Microsoft @Office

  @Smileyyeg Works for me. But it was better before the office365 crap was shoved down your throat at every turn.

  @12Knocksinna @Office365 The annoying part IMO is that we had perfectly function PowerShell cmdlets that were efficient and solved problems in single lines that have now been replaced by tomes of graph documentation, the horrors of the mggraph wrapper, authorization scopes, and a million other points of annoyance. The majority of M365 admins are not developers and will not take up learning how to write their own tools in their free time to perform basic administrative tasks.

  @District @Noahpinion It automatically launches and signs in with login, because I installed office365. Also it’s the SharePoint client I have, so I use it to open shared files. I use it for meetings with some “we don’t use zoom” companies. That doesn’t make it a slack competitor.

  Help @Office365 ... my outlook app on my phone is suddenly asking for a login. To confirm my identity, it wants to call my *office* phone. I'm on travel. What can i do?

  Jeff Fedor (@jfedor) reported 40 minutes ago

  @GrayBlue I've tried it on both desktop and Chrome. Neither seems to work reliably. Part of the issue is that Office365 doesn't reliably forward messages either. Use Case - we've been acquired. I have a Newco email (MS) and an existing email (GOOG). Newco is forwarding but is fickle.

  @Sushileo7 @BigBullCap ofc. there are bunch of companies that will use G-AI to solve customer problems, like better marketing automation, handling customer support/ CX, creating contents (via gsuite, office365, etc.,). I also expect bunch of companies face headwind.

  I wonder how much productivity the entire world economy has lost just from Microsoft products not working as intended. Freelancing for a new company, and they gave me my first Office 365 email that I've ever had to deal with on a professional basis. Within the first 2 hours, it's not even working and won't let me send emails. I'll take "things that would never happen with Gmail" for $500.
