Windows 10: Documents no longer show up when right click on Office 365 Icons

Below I have a screenshot of showing my issue. Up until one of the recent updates to Office 365, when you right click on an Office Icon in the taskbar recently opened documents, spreadsheets, etc. would show up in the dialogue box. You could then highlight one of these short list of documents and have it pin to the top part of the dialogue box as shown below. This was great for the 4-5 documents, spreadsheets, etc. that I would use constantly so as not to go through the process of opening Office 365 app/opening new document/telling it to browse documents/going to the cloud service you use/find

Office 365 - removing recent documents




- how do I remove an entry from the list of recent documents that shows when My Office opens..??

 

Cortana & Office 365 Integration

We are trying to integrate Cortana with our Office 365 subscription, but it never works. Here are the steps we have done:

• Turned on Cortona in the Office 365 Admin portal
• We are using Windows 10 1703 – connected Office 365 service to Cortana

Did the same on windows 10 mobile with no luck, Cortana says its connected to Office 365, but sees no data and we are getting zero errors

We went rough office 365 support first and tried all fo their suggestions, they kicked us over to Windows support which is currently closed.

We are on v1703 with all updates in place, it does not work on Windows 10 desktop or mobile

any ideas? I can give you all steps 365 support had us run through if that will be helpful

Thank you

Doug

 

Windows 10 Office 365 cannot open files from: recent file list

Thanks for the tip! I followed all above steps.

So far I can open files from the Recent files list when I enter Word itself, however I still am unable to open any documents using the Word icon pinned to the taskbar:
