I have a strange issue that I have not been able to resolve and need to see if anyone else has experienced similar and managed to resolve it.
The situation is that random students on random machines throughout the school are unable to save, either locally, on the network or Onedrive through any Office 365 product installed on the local computer. Clicking on Save or Save as elicits no response from the program in question.
If the student starts Wordpad, Notepad, etc. they are able to copy in the data and save to any aforementioned location. Then same if they start a Office Online application - they can work and save per usual there or save a copy locally.
But if they use the locally installed Office product they are unable to access any networked area, Onedrive or local file.
If an afflicted student moves to another machine, then they are able to save and use the Office product as normal.
I have confirmed this issue for: Word 2013, Excel 2013 and Powerpoint 2013.
The environment: we are running Windows 8.1 with Office 365 (with shared application licensing). Students are using a Mandatory profile with full GPO from the domain controllers.
I originally had this issue intermittently last year on Office 2013 (with KMS) but thought it was resolved when we moved to Office 365. Unfortunately it has NOT gotten better, and in fact I think it has gotten worse.
Have run reinstalls, repairs, different Office versions, but the problem crops up time after time. Am wondering if it might be GPO related or something else.
Any suggestions on where to look to resolve this?
