Hi<br />
We have a number of users that are having issues with open excel files that are on a standard windows share. &nbsp; The clients are using 2016 excel and sometimes the users would be prompted when the file is open, other times they do not.<br />
We have had this over the years going back as far as office 2003 and different servers.<br />
Ideas what could be happening?<br />
Thanks
