Dear Experts,
We have noticed that Excel is behaving differently on Windows 10 machines with respect to password protected files.
Previously if someone opens a password protected excel file, no one else was able to open the excel file (with the password) while its open. But now with Windows 10, whoever has the password can open the files and modify the file even if the file is already opened by someone. Only when saving the file, the second user would get the message that another user is editing and if he/she would like to discard the changes. We are using Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus. How to address this?
