FAQ

Can users still edit a document after reading mode is enabled by default?

  2. After opening an enterprise cloud document, users can click Edit at the top of the document when they need to make changes.
  3. The document then switches to editing mode.

Does this feature apply to online documents and local files?

  1. This feature applies only to enterprise cloud documents.
  2. It does not change the open mode of local files.
  3. Local files continue to use the normal client behavior.

Why do I not see the effect after turning it on?

  1. Confirm that an enterprise administrator turned on the setting in the admin console.
  2. Confirm that Save was clicked after the switch was turned on.
  3. Test with an enterprise cloud document instead of a local file.
  4. If the result still does not appear, check that the current account is in the correct enterprise environment and that the network connection is working.
