Microsoft in its inimitable overbearing bloatological style does it again. Everything looks so glossy and functional but another key function does not work.
Namely, the save function on Excel android. It acts as if it has saved changes but when I visit the same file on computer, or on the cloud of onedrive, the changes have not been saved.
I've done it saving to a drive on the computer and onto onedrive, with autosave on.
I'm logged into my account.
Any idea what the issue is, it's so tiring?
Hi Lord,
We have noticed that you responded but no message showing. We would like to know whether the issue you have raised with us is still ongoing? feel free to message me.
Best regards, Jansher
I would just like to add that although the solution was somewhat linked to what you said about permissions, i.e. that the network I was connecting to had flipped to public rather than private and so blocked smb connections, since fixing that the connection is very poor - sometimes the file saves, sometimes it doesn't. Know what I mean? This is quite typical of cloudy based stuff like onedrive as well. . . . sometimes it doesn't know one end of itself from the other. Generally microsoft stuff is flaky, especially around any connected files.
Also, would you kindly let me know how to get completely rid of bloatware Copilot, on windows 11? All the fixes advertised on line do not get rid of it.
Cheers
