Question of the Week
A colleague emailed me a link to a Word document from their OneDrive. How do I open this document on the Microsoft desktop rather than the web app?
You can open files in Microsoft OneDrive, SharePoint, or Teams in the desktop app by clicking the ellipse (three dots) next to the file. When the 鈥淥pen In鈥 option appears, choose 鈥淒esktop App.鈥 听If you have already opened the document in the web app, click the button on the right side that says 鈥楨diting鈥 and select the bottom option for 鈥極pen in Desktop App鈥. This same tip works for Excel and PowerPoint files when you need the full functionality of the desktop application.
