  • Fixed an issue where SVG files may be displayed as a broken link.
  • Fixed an issue where GIFs with zero frame delay would not animate when inserted into an email.
  • Fixed an issue where the wrong font color was showing for comments inserted on Mac and in different themes on Windows.
  • Fixed an issue where sections of text changed color to white after pasting a table from Excel and saving filtered HTML.

Microsoft Excel

  • Fixed an issue with newly added labels on unprotected files being lost if opened too soon after saving.
  • Fixed an issue where the PowerBI data type was missing under Get Data (GCC tenant only).
  • Fixed an issue with OnPrem where Get Data would become disabled in a document with a sensitive label and all permissions except full control.

  • Fixed an issue that caused the app to close unexpectedly when a chart was inserted by a Recommended Chart operation.
  • Fixed an issue where a tooltip for the See All Charts button was misleading (“see all chart types”); the behavior was actually limited to Recommended Charts.

Microsoft Outlook

  • Fixed a responsiveness issue when viewing animated GIFs.
  • Fixed an issue that would cause folder items outside of the sync window to be lost when the folder was moved to the Online Archive.

  • Fixed an issue that would occur when replying to a message in a shared mailbox when the email sender is also on the To: or CC: line. The user’s email address would be removed from the recipient list on the reply, resulting in the primary email sender not receiving any replies to the thread.

  • Fixed an issue where an asterisk (*) used as a separator in filters caused errors and unexpected behavior; replaced by a pipe (|).
  • Fixed an issue where the app stops responding when leveling does not complete.
  • Fixed an issue where the application opens to a screen that is no longer available, making the project hidden.

Microsoft Access

  • Fixed an issue that could cause the app to close unexpectedly if memory requirements grow too rapidly for applications using DAO or OLEDB interfaces to read Access databases.
