Has anyone else noticed lockups with Excel 365 (on Version 2020: Build 12527.21330 Click-to-Run) when a very large xlsx file is opened or saved to that's located on the desktop using the latest version of FSLogix (2.9.7621.30127)? We did not have this issue on the previous FSlogix release but have had users complain about Excel locking up ever since we moved to this release. Fell back to the older release and same xlsx files work fine.

    Hi,

    Are you sure that this issue only relates to Excel files?

    Did you try to save other files to the desktop?

    If you open a Excel file right after login, and then saves it immediately.

    Does it still freeze?

    Regards
    Fredrik
