in Office UPDATE: The issue seems to have been resolved in DisplayLink Core Software version 7.9.1336.0. It might have been fixed in earlier version but I have tested only 7.9.1336.0. Recently, I upgraded my laptop to Windows 10 and Office 2016. For keeping tabs on the setup, I have installed Office 2016 from my Office 365 account and the version is 16.0.6001.1038 (later updated to 16.0.6001.1043). This click-to-run version seems to be latest available as of this writing. Soon after setting everything up, I received Office documents (Word/PowerPoint) in email. As usual, I clicked the document and expected the preview to load inline in Outlook. Instead, I was presented with the following error dialog which flashed by rather quickly: Outlook complained that Microsoft Outlook (Protected View) has stopped working. I also noticed that in Outlook preview pane it reported “this file cannot be previewed because the previewer has been disabled”. This seemed to be limited to Office documents (Word, PowerPoint) as I was able to preview PDF files without any errors. I decided to save the file to disk and see if that resolved the issue. Not to much of my surprise, The file failed to open in Word when launched from local disk. The error stated “Word experienced an error trying to open the file”. As you can see in the screenshot, the suggestions weren’t useful and not pointing to the right issue (I know this because I tried those suggestions): My natural tendency when I download files from Internet or other unknown source is to unblock them if I have good reason to trust the source. So I decided to look at the properties of the file I had saved from Outlook, and as expected, the file was blocked: Microsoft explains this protective behavior in this article: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/internet-explorer/download-files#ie=ie-11. I am sure there are ways to override this default behavior, but since it would make your PC less secure, I would rather not teach you how to shoot yourselves in your foot. Better safe than sorry! Anyway, I digress. As you may have guessed already, the solution was simple. Since I trusted the sender, I unblocked the file and Word opened the file happily. Sadly, I decided to live with broken preview experience in Outlook until I can get the previewer to succesfully open attachments in protected view. I didn't want to disable protected view as that would compromise security of my setup. I was asked to try disabling hardware acceleration in Office programs, which I tried, but that didn't fix the issue. What was
