Excel files don't open on my phone even if when I allow access.
Recently, after I open my excel file from Dropbox, it prompts me to "Microsoft Office Integration would like to access to the files and folders in your Dropbox". I Key "Allow". But it does not open...

Hey acpaintingnm - sorry to hear about this.
Have you tried reinstalling the apps on your device since you first noticed this issue?

Just tried reinstalling, but it remains the same - it prompts me to "Microsoft Office Integration would like to access to the files and folders in your Dropbox". I Key "Allow". But it does not open the excel file.

Hi Hannah
Thank you. It works.
But now I have another issue ... I cannot use 'Remove From Recent' function to remove Excel, Word and PowerPoint file from MSOffice. Please advise

Does it work without the workaround?
Would you mind sending me some screenshots of the steps you normally follow to do that?
